vscode: problem text is spoken repeatedly, two times with each instance, until the problem is resolved

Issue Type: Bug

When f8 is used to find the next problem, my screen reader speaks the problem, waits about two seconds, then speaks it again. The major problem, though, is that this continues to happen. Each time I write another statement, and often when I just arrow around my code, the problem text is spoken twice. The quickest way I’ve found to deal with the constant interruptions is by fixing the problem, but that’s not always desired, or even possible. I might know a function doesn’t yet return the type it says it should, but I’m still writing the code that will get me to the correct return type. As I type/review the code, I’m constantly reminded that the return type doesn’t match the signature, just because I hit f8 once to check the code I have so far.

I’m using NVDA, the latest public version (2022.2). When this problem happens, the problem text is brailled as well as being spoken. This is even more disruptive; if speech were the worst of it, at least I could still review code in braille until NVDA shuts up about the problem. I can’t emphasize enough how annoying this can get.

I’ll try to make a test file tonight that has the problem. The one I’m working with now is a work file, so I can’t share it.
