I'm still not convinced it is an Apple problem.
There has to be something different those other speakers are doing with there 
interaction with the device.
Airplay did that, but I don't have a working Airplay device to test right now.
None of my bluetooth devices do this' everything comes through the bluetooth.

 Yes, I’ve heard that this so called “feature” or bug is only for a few select 
speakers. I honestly wish I could find more definitive information about this 
instead of hearsay  because I’d like to purchase  and use a bluetooth speaker 
that’s portable and doesn’t require a WIFI connection in order to keep VO with 
my phone and only my music, book, or TV show going to the speaker. My current 
setup isn’t exactly portable and WIFI is required if I want VO to stay with my 
device. The problem though is that it could be a bug instead of a feature and 
there is no way to know for sure just yet. It seems that some people like this 
and some people don’t. So, it’s hard to say. ☺️

Subject: Re: Apple Accessibility reply to Voiceover no longer coming out of my 
Bose Mini Soundlink 2 bluetooth speaker since upgrading to iOS 13.2

Hi Alan,

I have a few thoughts and ideas. I do have a question though. When VO goes to 
your phone instead of through the speaker, is it only going to the ear speaker 
where you can barely hear VO? Or is the sound just fine? I actually heard about 
this some time ago and I was under  the impression that it was actually a new 
feature for a few speakers. I personally prefer VO to stay with my phone and 
for only the music to come out of the speakers, like when I use airPlay. That 
is my personal preference. I don’t like VO interupting my music. That is just a 
personal preference. I can understand that others prefer VO to go  through the 
connected speaker. ☺️ So here’s an idea I heard about. I heard there is a 
setting under accessibility, voice over, audio, send to HDMI. I heard if you 
want VO to stay with the phone to make sure that is set to off. However in your 
case, maybe try setting it to on. I don’t know. Also, you should unpair the 
speaker, change the setting, then re-pair the speaker to your phone. I don’t 
know if this will help at all , but maybe it’s worth a try. Also, I have a 
friend who recently used a Bose Revolve and she was quite pleased to have VO 
stay with her phone because she didn’t have to interrupt the music to do things 
on her phone. Everyone in the room could enjoy the music and she retained the 
ability to do what she needed to on her iPhone.

HTH and best of luck,
Christina

Hello List,

I wrote to Apple Accessibility about the issue of Voiceover coming out of the
