Braille display and VoiceOver not playing nicely together

High brains trust, I’m helping my sister with her braille display. I am a braille display user as well so you can talk the lingo to me. Long story but we had to pair her focus 40 blue fourth generation to her iPhone 16e, running iOS 18.6. Always work perfectly before until yesterday. When you have the braille display on, VoiceOver losers speech. The volume goes right down. If you turn the volume up, it just goes straight all the way back down again. The speech is not muted, and we have turned it off and on again. Anyone else had this?
