An alternative approach may be to use the Activity feature of Voiceover to have application specific settings. In theory you should be able to set up one editing application that does not have any - typing echo. Of course this will be a permanent setting for an application. You might want to get an alternative three editing application like Beam four example which could then provide typing with no echo. . . . So you can set an activity up for Beam en, and then use that for the time in which you want to type without typing echo.
