Re: No voice, Power Point Slide Show view on Laptop with HDMI connected, NVDA restart fixes problem
Hi Rick,
I am unable to duplicate your problem probably because I do not have HDMI on my desktop. I have however used NVDA on laptops and connected them to HDMI projectors without problems. My suggestion came from my experiences with USB sound cards. Setting a specific sound card helped mitigate the problem that NVDA would switch to a USB sound card when that card was inserted. HDMI was doing something similar hence I thought the same solution would work. It appears the solution failed, sorry about that. I did try running a presentation in slide show mode and NVDA began to speak without any effort. Pranav

Re: No voice, Power Point Slide Show view on Laptop with HDMI connected, NVDA restart fixes problem
Rick
Hello Pranav:
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Before making this suggestion, were you able to replicate my exact problem and determine that this fixed it. I changed the NVDA setting to use the internal speaker and added slide transition sounds to my Power Point slide show. NVDA now spoke on internal speakers while window sounds played on HDMI. NVDA does the same exact thing when the slide show is started (no voice on the slide show window, but speaks everywhere else when alt tabbing away from the slide show window. Power point slide transition sounds were played on the HDMI device (i.e. TV). Sadly, restarting NVDA no longer fixed the problem and NVDA simply did not speak on the slide show window. Changing NVDA back to sound mapper and now restart of NVDA no longer corrects when restarted. Now I have a computer that simply won't speak the slide content when connected to HDMI, even after restarting NVDA. I think this is a bug in NVDA. Don't ya just love computers?!? Rick

I think the usual setting is microsoft sound mapper. Set the output device to your internal sound card. That way, when your computer begins sending audio over HDMI, NVDA will continue speaking through the internal sound card. Pranav

1) The classic editor will still be available, you'll just have to change the default; & 2) While it's not the most pleasant experience ever, I did work w/GB & I could do what I wanted to do w/it. There were some compatibility issues between it & other plugs I was using, so I quit using it, but it really was not due to accessibility.

The one thing to watch is for the 5.0 release which will have the Gutenberg editor. This editor is still not accessible. It is causing some issues within the WP community. For example the WP accessibility lead developer just resigned over this new editor. Greg Wocher
