Had you looked at a purpose-made "felt support", e.g.

I faffed about with dpm, and wonder whether this stuff might make a
better job, and be easier.

These are exactly what you need. Lift the edge of a few tiles at a time
with a batten, slide in the soffit protector/felt support UNDER the
felt. Fit the next one along with a 100mm or so overlap.
The short angled edge folds over into the gutter, normally not needing
any fixings but the odd well aimed felt nail can help.
