Hello Holly, I believe what you are experiencing is somewhat unique to the 20-cell displays.
A list member, I believe her name is Melissa, had the same problem and was able to resolve it but I cannot remember her solution as she did not post it on-list. Perhaps you should download a free iBook title and see how it works with your display. It may also be useful to attempt reading several Kindle titles to see if all have this same problem or only one particular title. The point is that you must narrow down the scenario in which this glitch occurs. It may also be useful to contact your Braille display manufacturer. Have you attempted to use different encoding? For example, try switching to computer Braille or UEB and see what happens. Try un-paring, and then re-pairing the display to your iOS device after a iOS reboot. It may be useful to check the general font and display settings on your iOS device, outside of the Kindle app, as well. Some low vision users increase font size, turn bold display on, disable the standard screen resolution, etc. You must be certain that all of these settings are set to their default parameters. At present, I cannot reproduce your issues, when I have VoiceOver speech muted, when using my Focus 40 Blue.

I tried making the font as small as possible, and nothing works. It happens when it goes to the next page naturally, or when I turn the page. Its very frustrating.
