I always, no almost always, repeat dead ball calls loudly; partly to be sure I'm heard with everyone yelling and partly to avoid injuries by stopping play. Even if I can stop looking at players long enough to look at my partner; I want him/her to know a soon as possible. There is no harm in announcing it more than once.
Except things like HBP, etc.
