Same here; I have an ADHD-PI diagnosis. Obviously everyone with ADHD or adjacent symptoms is different, but the idea of having talking on in the background while working is untenable to me. Open offices have been the worst working environments I've ever used. Even having gentle, instrumental music on with headphones is too distracting for me to work. Silence, or no work is done. If people are close by, even if they're not interacting with me, just them being close by is distracting enough to make my productivity tank. Same issue with these "remote doubling" services, in my experience.
Maybe it's different for people with a "primarily hyperactive" diagnosis, where the doubling is more an aspect of keeping them in their seat than anything.
