You need to enable the speech renderer as the text rendering module. This is hidden in the advanced preferences of VLC accessible through the VLC menu. Navigate to Subtitles / OSD within the Video section. You can see the option in this screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/kRGwjYk

Note that this renderer will NOT work for image based subtitles provided by DVDs or BluRay.
