Hmmm.  Do you have cursors tracking each other?  I ask this as I’m trying to 
determine where focus may be when the double-tap is applied.  When I was 
testing, VO focus was in the text area, thus, when my thumb did a double-tap 
action, either nothing happened or a Contextual menu appeared, for which the 
Escape key got me out of.

Later...
