When the lock screen is up, I can touch any item on the status bar and then swipe up with three fingers. I always find this more convenient than swiping down with one finger from the top edge. From your question, it seems somehow you are not able to access the status bar? Maybe a restart needed?

Oh, This may be specific to the newer devices. I'm on iphone 12. Sorry if I've create more confusion than help.
Have you considered making a new gesture for it in the commands setting within VO settings?
For example, I have Back tap 2x for Notification Center, and 3x for Control Center.

Did Not Work For Me
Subject says it all. I have no status bar when in locke screen. Reset does not work for me.
