How about, "I want to talk to someone whose first language is English"?

Does it matter if their first language is English? I know a lot of people who don't have it as their first language, but still speak English at least as well as the native speakers around me.

Now, "I'd like to speak to someone who I can understand" is a reasonable ask.

Yes, that's much better phrasing and what I meant.
