I am having this same exact problem. The fact that I cannot find a solution after a modest and earnest search is additionally frustrating. I am operating an up-to-date 17.2.1 iOS. Enable dictation is off. As nearly as I can tell, anything remotely approaching a "voice to text" feature is off. Still, voice to text continues when using Messages, Chrome, Safari, Edge, iTunes, etc.
