Facebook notifications on lock screen not working

Hi, Ever since I installed one of the Ios 12 betas (I'm not sure which one but it was the one that introduced the notifications not being read on the lock screen bug), my fb notifications aren't being read on the lock screen, though notifications from other apps are read just fine. I'm now running ios 12.1.3 (another beta). I have my facebook set to allow notifications on the lock screen, and I even tried setting up a passcode and touch id. No luck. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Facebook. Then I restored from an Icloud backup because I don't have an ITunes one. Also no luck. My last resort is to set up the iPhone as a new phone, but I really don't want to do that unless I absolutely have to. Are there any other fixes that people have tried that work?
Thanks!

I believe under the Voiceover settings, there is one that you can adjust to have Voiceover announce all notifications. Have you checked that setting? If that doesn't work, I apologize, but it is all I can think to try.

The notifications aren't showing up, so Voiceover announcing them isn't the problem. And it announces notifications for all other apps.
