iPhone says Voice Control is no longer listening

I periodically get a pop-up message that says voice control is no longer listening. What does that mean, and should I be correcting something? Thank you!

To turn Voice Control on or off after the initial setup, you can use "Hey Siri", the Accessibility Shortcut, or go to Settings, select Accessibility, then select Voice Control. To lock your device, say "Lock screen". To wake your device, say "Hey Siri, turn on Voice Control".


Voice Control is listening for your commands.
