Hi, in the latest beta of iOS 17.5 there is a weird back where voiceover suddenly turns off when opening an app. The only thing that helps is restarting your phone with Siri. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Yes, I'm having the same thing. Very frustrating. But it seems like it's only a few certain apps it's happening with. Not sure why.
And also, this seems somehow to be related to automatic language switching. If I choose either english or norwegian, which is my native language, in the language selection in VO rotor and then open the same app, this will not happen. It's only when the VO language is set to the option which automatically detects language and switches voice automatically. But this is a pretty serious bug, if Apple's not correcting this before the official release of iOS 17.5.
