I use the 3 finger double tap to mute speech when on a call with my headset, and then unmute it when done with the call. I would rather do this than close VO altogether, as mentioned earlier since the standard gestures are different than when VO is running. This way, even if I hang up the call with the headset, I can press the home button to bring up the lock screen, and then do the 3 finger double tap to unmute speech. I've been using this a lot with the headset since I don't want to hear the time elapsed constantly announced by VoiceOver.
