There is no fix, this is simply a result of Bluetooth latency which exists in even the best and most expensive headsets and sometimes I found that expensive headsets had more of a delay than inexpensive ones. Even Apple has not figured this out with their expensive Airpods, Airpods Pro and

Hi Christopher, you should try to work with screen curtain on for an extended period of time and I believe you will find that whenever this happens if you have screen curtain on Voiceover will say "screen curtain on" just as if you were restarting Voiceover. For me clearing the app switcher or

Sometimes Eye Note  works for me,  sometimes it doesn't. But now, I know that when it doesn't, it needs more light. So, I either turn a light on in the room, or go outside, and it has never not worked under these conditions. I have the cheap phone, it probably works better on the pro models.
