Re: Voiceover speech not using external speaker except when in sound settings
Glad you got this straightened out. My wife had the same issue. In her case, the headphone jack was clean as a whistle. The phone was holding on to a Bluetooth headset and wouldn’t let go. Apple accessibility gave it the old school try and could not figure it out.

I know I posted earlier what I thought was a fix, but it went south on me again. But I have fixed it now. And OMG, I can't believe it. But it was dust and gunk in the headphone jack, a whole lot of it! I got the gunk out using a toothpick and very very gentle scraping action. I can't believe the large piece of dust that came out of my poor headphone jack. Really gross! But now Voiceover is chattering away again. Thanks for the suggestion. ~Ann -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Re: Voiceover speech not using external speaker except when in sound settings
I too am having trouble with voice over. It is sort of hit and miss and I can usually get it back but it isn’t very reliable. I am trying to get a new phone but that takes a little time. I wonder if there is a problem with voiceover in one of the new updates. Gail Sent from Gail’s iPhone On Jul 15, 2020, at 12:24 PM, Ann wrote: Hi folks, I have an iPhone 6S, running the iOS 13.5.

Re: Voiceover speech not using external speaker except when in sound settings
Hi ann, Your headphone jack may have a piece of dust blocking it or something of that sort. Try plugging in and disconnecting your headphones a few times to see if that helps.

RE: Voiceover speech not using external speaker except when in sound settings
I don't have that phrasing under VoiceOver, Audio in settings if no headphones are connected. Under VoiceOver, Audio I have: Sounds and Haptics, Audio Ducking, which is off. Auto Select Speaker in Call, on. Send to HDMI, off. That's it. If I plug in headphones, then I have, Sound channels. So, either your earphone jack has an issue and makes the phone think it has headphones connected, or the Bluetooth thinks there are headphones connected. This is the kind of thing that I would call Apple Accessibility and ask them to do a share screen and run the diagnostics they can do remotely. 877-204-3930 HTH, Richard "He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself,” and we forget that only grace can break the cycle of ancient hatreds among peoples.
