The volume of the VoiceOver navigation sounds is already quite loud, and I haven’t found a way to turn up the speech volume without having access to speech. Siri doesn’t seem to be clever enough to do that on the Apple TV, or if she is, it’s not making any difference.
Tomorrow I may try Be My Eyes, before calling Apple Accessibility. Does anyone know whether Apple Accessibility has a means of controlling the Apple TV remotely? Just curious.

I can turn VoiceOver off and back on, both with Siri and by pressing the button 3 times, but still no speech. Siri obeys commands, without speaking, and TV programmes play just fine, but obviously I need the speech back. I’ll definitely call Apple Accessibility, either today or tomorrow, and I’ll let the list know how I get on.

Alternatively click the button with the ring around it 3 times. If nothing happens click it 3 times again and see if voice comes back. None of this works call apple accessibility. They are pretty good at diagnosing Apple TV. Hope This helps.

I’m fairly sure VoiceOver itself is running, judging by the sounds, but without speech I can’t go into the settings and sort it out. I’ve tried asking Siri to turn speech off and then turn speech on, but to no avail so far. Does anyone have any tips for solving this problem without sighted assistance, or will I have to do a factory reset?
