say all isn't working


Phillip Gross
 

First off first post to the group so hello.  

 

I am on a Surface Book laptop and my Say all isn’t working.  For example if I am in Firefox and hit say all it will read me a paragraph or so or a page or 2 if I am in Kindle then it stops.  When I hit the say all command again it starts again from where it started previously and reads the same amount.

 

I have the latest version of NVDA, my keyboard is set to laptop, and the system has been restarted multiple times.  I have even tried each of the different review modes with 0 success.  What am I missing?

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

Are you using CapsLock+A or CapsLock+downArrow?

Capslock + A is what I normally use but I have tried both. Down arrow just reads the next line and a does what I explained before.

Thank you. I tried changing it as soon as I responded to your previous message and that fixed it.

What synthesizer are you using?  It sounds to me like some sort of tracking problem and the first thing I test is what happens with a different synthesizer.  I vaguely seem to recall that a certain synthesizer doesn't work properly with say all.

I'm surprised this has not been fixed yet. It had as I recall got something to do with the way the data is sent to the synth and when it thinks its finished.

Hi.

The user has already figured out that the issue is synthesizer specific.
