If you're listening closely to music or other media content, with audio
ducking on VoiceOver can knock that down for a bit. It's a matter of
preference really, whether to have ducking on or not.
There may be times when you'll want it on, but other times you'll prefer
it off.

I agree. I tried setting up the feature on the iPhone where I could
just enable it with two knocks on the back of the phone, but I found
this gesture too unreliable. If it worked, I could turn on audio
ducking even if I couldn’t hear VoiceOver. Instead, I settled with
putting it in VoiecOver quick settings, which makes it tough to turn
on when the media volume is overwhelming VoiceOver.

I generally find it annoying if I'm listening to something like music
or a soundscape. Audio ducking is very drastic and lowers the volume
such that you'll be pulled out of any flow state. Sound scapes and
music are dropped in volume enough that you'll miss hearing things
other than VoiceOver. It depends on what you most value hearing at the
time. I wish there was a settting to control how drastic the volume of
other audio is ducked. Even better would be an ability to set the
relative volumes of things so VoiceOver was loud enough to always be
distinguished. It's an imperfect but at times useful tool..

If audio ducking is turned on it reduces audio playing so you can
better hear Voiceover.
For example, if you are playing music or a video and you want to
pause, change tracks or maybe you heard a notification come in and
you want to check what it is without stopping whatever is playing
then if you have audio ducking turned on it is much easier to hear
Voiceover because as soon as you use your phone and Voiceover is
talking the audio volume of whatever else is playing is reduced.
If you stop using Voiceover the audio volume is restored. I highly
recommend to turn it on, but that is of course my personal opinion
and I am sure others think it should be turned off.
