New text messages not spoken when received

Hi,

I have a Tasker profile that speaks new text messages while I have a bluetooth connection to any device.  Since migrating to my new S10, this profile stopped working.  I've seen this issue on reddit, but after following the links posted and trying all the steps, it still doesn't work.  Below is a list of settings that I've checked.  Am I missing something?  Thanks in advance for your help!

Settings:

Tasker is enabled
Notifications are on
'Use reliable alarms' enabled
Power mode is optimized. Adaptive power saving is off. Optimize settings is off. {Battery -> Setting -> Settings power optimization = disabled}
Adaptive battery is off
Put unused apps to sleep is off
Auto disable unused apps is off
Under App info:
-Optimize battery usage is off
-Allow background activity is enabled
-Permissions: all except Body sensors and Camera are enabled
-Appear on top is Allowed
-Change system settings is Allowed
Display off monitoring doesn't specifically mention BT polling

Android P

Hi.  Description is copied and pasted below.  Originally, I had the addresses specifically listed for each BT device.  I was able to get this profile (Anon (4) ) to work when I removed the addresses.  So, I guess this problem can be closed.  Not sure if this problem is endemic to Android P, or the S10s in general.  Eventually, I'd like to get the profile 'Bluetoothed Sms' working, but I need to investigate a bit further with regard to the microphone input.
 
Either way, thanks for showing me how to export descriptions.
 
Kind regards,
Kyle
