Suppose you could try leaving Voice-Over off and type, then turn it on to
read if you wish.
Let us know if that works. It's not ideal, but some of us could manage it
OK if pushed ...

Subject: Re: Inability to type with bluetooth keyboard in iOS9?
Hi Alex
I'm not going to say whether you should advise people to upgrade or not.
However, the bluetooth keyboard bug is quite significant to those it happens
to, as it just won't speak or let you type text when you're in any sort of
text edit field. It just freezes and VO stops talking. The only way you can
resolve it is to turn the bluetooth keyboard off and make do with the
on-screen keyboard. But obviously this is by no means ideal when you're
trying to write long documents or e-mails etc. I'm sure others will have
their opinions too.

Hi all,
I'm curious about iOS9's bug that prevents typing with bluetooth keyboards
for some users. I didn't see this in my own testing, though I don't really
use a bluetooth keyboard often. I didn't hear about anyone else running
into this one either, and I talked to several testers during the beta
cycle. I'm not doubting it happens, I just want to try to figure out why
it happens. I'm going to be asked by some TVIs and other people whether
they should upgrade the devices of their students and clients, and I am
not sure what to tell them about this bug. Any information you can provide
would be appreciated. Thanks.
