VoiceOver is slow to speak some elements after focusing on them

Category
VoiceOver Speech/Voices
Severity
Moderate

Description

There is a slight delay between when VoiceOver focuses on an element and when the name of that element is spoken. For example, when focusing on the "Conversations" collection in Messages, VoiceOver will immediately play the expected sound, but will be relatively slow to start speaking. This issue has been observed in Messages, Podcasts, and Voice Memos.
