Richard,
possibly final one e from me on this thread.
I do what you suggest but can't see a way of changing the amount of
reducing on my 13 Mini?
It's at 80 percent but hopefully that will suffice.

If you go to Settings, Accessibility, VoiceOver, Audio, Audio Ducking
is the second item.
First is VoiceOver Sounds and haptics.
IN there you can choose between the three states, off, always on, or
while speaking.
If you put it on the rotor under Settings, Accessibility, VoiceOver,
Rotor, Rotor Items, you can adjust the settings on the fly with the
rotor instead of having to go into settings every time.

Yes I did go to settings and I couldn't find audio-ducking but as you
tell me it's in accessibility.
A good tip is the search tool for sure.
Thanks,
Tony

I like teachable moments. When you are looking for a setting, you
can go to the settings app and in the top left, is a search field.
In this case I typed:
Audio Ducking
And the result was, Accessibility → VoiceOver → Audio
Then, go to VoiceOver settings, Rotor, Rotor Items and select the
ones for audio ducking and ducking amount.

Richard, It's when I'm trying to mute or close off a station,
I can't hear with VO properly so looks lkike
The percentage of the Ducking Amount is a good suggestion in
my case.
Where do we find audio-ducking?
Interesting that you can put it on the rotor.

It is called Audio Ducking.
There are now two parts to audio ducking.
1. Audio ducking on always, or while VO is speaking, or off.
2. The percentage of the Ducking Amount. 1% would be
virtually no ducking of the media, 99% would be almost
total ducking of the media sounds, music, book, etc.
Those are items in the rotor that you can select so you
can adjust them as needed.

Hi folk,
I wonder is there a command or whatever to reduce
background music or radio sound when trying to hear VO.
Something like as in NVDA
where there is a keystroke for reducing background sound?
Thanks,
Tony
