One thing I have found is that if you want the volume of VoiceOver to be turned up, it helps to be swiping left to right and then right to left, as to make VO speak, while at the same time you are pressing the volume up button.

Did you do a triple click with the home button to toggle it on or off? It’s a 3 finger double tap to toggle speech on and off and one more thing, have you checked the volume? Sometimes for whatever reason the volume on mine gets turned down without me touching that button.
