 A speech and braille question

HI, All
I've noticed when using the speak method, whatever the speech displays
is forceably shown as a quick message on the Braille display. Other than
turning off quick messages, is there a way to stop this behavior? I
would like to handle both speech and Braille, but I need to format the
Braille message differently than the speech as well as not have it
disappear like a message. I don't see anything in the docs that would
indicate this is possible directly. The best approach I can think of
that seems to work is to speak and then queue a Braille.Display action,
but occasionally if I do that the timing can be off and the speech
message will still flicker on the display before being replaced with
what should be displayed there. Are there better approaches to this, or
else is there a parameter I can pass to Speak that I've overlooked somehow?

Thanks
