How to disable reading of notifications on lock screen

Hello,

I want to stop VoiceOver from reading incoming notifications on the lock screen.

Two reasons for that:

1. Privacy.

2. Speech in combination with volume ducking lowers the volume of the sounds for incoming notifications, making me miss them most of the times. Yes, I can disable volume ducking, but I find it useful most of the times and prefer to keep it enabled.

One question though. Will disabling the reading of incoming notifications stop VoiceOver from reading the caller ID for an incoming call?

Thanks in advance! 😊
