Dictation and VoiceOver running into each other

$

I've been experiencing a problem recently when dictating e-mail messages or other items on my iPhone when using VoiceOver.

I am using an iPhone 6 and iOS 9.2.1.

The problem is that as I dictate, VoiceOver is trying to immediately speak back what I have entered. Then the phone hears what VoiceOver is speaking and will insert what it heard into the text.

For example, I will say something like:

"It is a nice day"

and as I am dictating VoiceOver can be heard to say "nice day".

Then the entered text becomes:
"It is a nice day nice day"

The procedure I use for dictating is to perform a two finger double tap, start speaking, and then perform a two finger double tap when I'm done speaking.

Is this a known bug? Are there any suggestions for avoiding this problem? Does Apple know about the problem?

thanks.
