Closed Captions not working on multiple apps

Hi, I have sensory processing issue and need captions to understand what’s being spoken on TV. Within the past few days I’ve noticed the captions aren’t working on most apps. I have them set to always on in settings. I’ve tried changing the settings in individual apps but no luck.

Is anyone having this issue? I basically can’t watch anything
