Here is a suggestion for those who don't want to hear cap spoken.  Try an NVDA speech dictionary entry for cap and place a space in the pronounced as field.  Be sure to select whole word or you won't hear cap wherever it appears.  Thus, Captain Kirk would be tain Kurk.


On a more general note, I don't understand the cause of the problem.  I would think that when a capital letter is found, NVDA sends instructions to the synthesizer such as raise voice, or actually sends the word cap to the synthesizer.  But turning off these options doesn't eliminate the word cap being spoken for some people and now one person says pitch isn't raised.


Yet, I wouldn't think the synthesizer would do something on its own like say cap if no information came from NVDA.  Perhaps someone with more technical knowledge might discuss what might be causing the problems.
