Here's a thought. Perhaps Apple should set VO to only announce information if you touch it or otherwise request it while on a call and in the phone app. If you leave the phone app then it behaves as usual until you go back to the phone app with the call still active.

I might be in the minority here but, I think there is such a thing as over customization. I think when on a call, Voiceover shouldn't read aloud any messages, with the possible exception of incoming calls. And this is only because you only have a set amount of time to answer a call before it goes to voicemail. But otherwise, just play an alert. If you really feel you must read the notification, you can then tell the person on the line to hold on, as you check the notification.
