I also use Read Aloud. I like to visually see, but I have times where for various reasons I cannot read, so I will use Read Aloud. I would suggest copying the text and put it into a different window to read though, otherwise it tries to include page headers and such.
I like https://www.ambient-mixer.com/ too. The sound of rain and thunder helps me to concentrate. I lived it areas where in rained a lot and found it much easier to focus.
You just reminded me of something! I did have COVID a few months ago, and while it was hard to focus prior to that, I was usually able to grind my way through. Maybe COVID has something to do with this, or maybe even the stress that came with it??
I need to look at that...!
