Subject: Re: [nvda] NVDA goes silent when arrowing down the list of
participants panel in Zoom
Hi all, I would like to shed more light on this particular problem.
After the participants panel is opened, NVDA will read all the names that
appear on the screen when arrowing down. So, there will be more names that
appear if the panel is maximise.
For instance, I have participant 1 to 12 appearing on the screen and NVDA
will read all of them when I arrow down. When I reach participant 12, and
arrow down once more, NVDA will go silent. It will not read participant 13.
I am using windows 8.1, latest version of NVDA, Zoom and Zoom Enhancement
add-on. This does not happen with JAWS. Thanks.

Nope. I'm saying I probably cannot test this tomorrow as I'm not
teaching the class, just taking taking it, and I don't think you can
view the people
in the class unless you are host. I'm glad there is a work around
though inc
in my zoom class I want to teach one day gets over 7 people..

Nor have I done much testing with this, as I'm usually trying to
focus on the meeting I'm attending, but I do not expect my screen
reader, no matter what it is, to suddenly be delayed by several
seconds after arrowing down a half a dozen times with no problem
whatsoever. I may have a meeting on Saturday, so I will play around
with this if that meeting happens.

This is just a work-around, how nice if a solution can be found for

I have this issue too. What I've found to work is to hit your up
arrow when you get to the point where it goes silent, then your down
arrow again. That helps for a brief time, then you have to repeat
that process again. I agree, kind of annoying. I'm also having two
additional issues with NVDA not reading things properly in Zoom:
1. When typing anything in Zoom and you type something wrong, NVDA
does not read what you backspace. It reads if you type things
normally, but if
you try to review or correct an error, it will not read.
2. If you're in a meeting that initially isn't being recorded, then
the host starts recording, NVDA does not read the alert that tells
you that the meeting is now being recorded.

This problem has been there even with the older version of NVDA and

1. Wit no apps

3. Re-boot my computer.
Just wish to find out if any of you have similar problem and what can
be done? Perhaps this can help to improve future version of NVDA.
I have also use JAWS and this has not been a problem. Thanks all.

Hi
I tried the read current line or the read the current line of the
navigation object and NVDA reads to me when I encounter the problem.
This is just a work-around, how nice if a solution can be found for
this. Thanks.

I have this issue too. What I've found to work is to hit your up
arrow
when you get to the point where it goes silent, then your down arrow
again. That helps for a brief time, then you have to repeat that
process
again. I agree, kind of annoying. I'm also having two additional
issues
with NVDA not reading things properly in Zoom:
1. When typing anything in Zoom and you type something wrong, NVDA
does
not read what you backspace. It reads if you type things normally,
but
if
you try to review or correct an error, it will not read.
2. If you're in a meeting that initially isn't being recorded, then
the
host starts recording, NVDA does not read the alert that tells you
that
the meeting is now being recorded.

Hi all,
Wish to report the above problem when using NVDA in Zoom. IN a zoom
meeting, if I wish to find out the list of participants, I will
press
alt + U to call out the participants panel. I will then arrow down
the
list. After severl down arrow, NVDA will stop speaking.
I am using the latest version of NVDA, Zoom enhancement app and
Zoom.
This problem has been there even with the older version of NVDA and
Zoom. I am using Windows 8.1. I have tried the following with no
avail:
1. Wit no apps
2. restart NVDA
3. Re-boot my computer.
Just wish to find out if any of you have similar problem and what
can
be done? Perhaps this can help to improve future version of NVDA.
I have also use JAWS and this has not been a problem. Thanks all.

If the class is a webinar, you cannot see participants. I suspect
that's the situation here.

Nope. I'm saying I probably cannot test this tomorrow as I'm not teaching

in the class unless you are host. I'm glad there is a work around though inc
in my zoom class I want to teach one day gets over 7 people..

Nor have I done much testing with this, as I'm usually trying to focus

arrowing down a half a dozen times with no problem whatsoever. I may

Hi all,
Wish to report the above problem when using NVDA in Zoom. IN a zoom
meeting, if I wish to find out the list of participants, I will
press
alt + U to call out the participants panel. I will then arrow down
the
list. After severl down arrow, NVDA will stop speaking.
I am using the latest version of NVDA, Zoom enhancement app and
Zoom.
This problem has been there even with the older version of NVDA and
Zoom. I am using Windows 8.1. I have tried the following with no
avail:
1. Wit no apps
2. restart NVDA
3. Re-boot my computer.
Just wish to find out if any of you have similar problem and what
can
be done? Perhaps this can help to improve future version of NVDA.
I have also use JAWS and this has not been a problem. Thanks all.

Are you saying you don't think you can use read current line in the class for some reason?

Nor have I done much testing with this, as I'm usually trying to focus
on the meeting I'm attending, but I do not expect my screen reader, no
matter what it is, to suddenly be delayed by several seconds after
arrowing down a half a dozen times with no problem whatsoever. I may
have a meeting on Saturday, so I will play around with this if that
meeting happens.

I have this issue too. What I've found to work is to hit your up arrow
when you get to the point where it goes silent, then your down arrow
again. That helps for a brief time, then you have to repeat that
process
again. I agree, kind of annoying. I'm also having two additional
issues
with NVDA not reading things properly in Zoom:
1. When typing anything in Zoom and you type something wrong, NVDA
does
not read what you backspace. It reads if you type things normally, but
if
you try to review or correct an error, it will not read.
2. If you're in a meeting that initially isn't being recorded, then
the
host starts recording, NVDA does not read the alert that tells you
that
the meeting is now being recorded.

Okay, now that my meeting is over I can give more detail.
In Zoom, open the participants panel, and hit your down arrow. It
reads the first six participants normally, then does not read anymore,
I waited a couple seconds before pressing the arrow key to make sure
there was no delay. If you keep pressing down arrow and there are only
about a dozen participants as there were in my meeting tonight, you
will soon loop back to the top of the list, and NVDA exhibits the same
behavior. If you press your up arrow once, then press down arrow
again, NVDA reads both participants encountered, but pressing down
arrow a second time gives silence.
To give a clearer example, let's say there are 15 participants in a
meeting, as there were in mine tonight. I opened the participant
panel, and saw that my name was at the top. I pressed down arrow five
times, landing on the sixth participant in the list with no problem. I
press down arrow again to navigate to the seventh participant, NVDA
does not say a word. I press up arrow once, NVDA reads the name of the
sixth participant again. I then press down arrow again, and it reads
the seventh participant as expected. I then press down arrow to move
to the eighth participant, which NVDA does not read. If I continue to
press down arrow, NVDA continues to be silent, until it loops back to
the top of the list, where as mentioned above, it reads the first six
participants. If however I press my up arrow here, it reads the
previous five participants, then goes silent until it gets to the
bottom of the list, where just like the down arrow at the top of the
list, it reads the bottom six. Using your down arrow after the up
arrow has gone silent also reads the next five. I hope this makes
sense.

participants panel in Zoom
Hi
I tried the read current line or the read the current line of the
navigation object and NVDA reads to me when I encounter the problem.
This is just a work-around, how nice if a solution can be found for
this. Thanks.

Hello Bob. Just curious, does SA have that problem? System Access I mean?

I have this issue too. What I've found to work is to hit your up arrow
when you get to the point where it goes silent, then your down arrow
again. That helps for a brief time, then you have to repeat that process
again. I agree, kind of annoying. I'm also having two additional issues
with NVDA not reading things properly in Zoom:
1. When typing anything in Zoom and you type something wrong, NVDA does
not read what you backspace. It reads if you type things normally, but if
you try to review or correct an error, it will not read.
2. If you're in a meeting that initially isn't being recorded, then the
host starts recording, NVDA does not read the alert that tells you that
the meeting is now being recorded.

Hi all,
Wish to report the above problem when using NVDA in Zoom. IN a zoom
meeting, if I wish to find out the list of participants, I will press
alt + U to call out the participants panel. I will then arrow down the
list. After severl down arrow, NVDA will stop speaking.
I am using the latest version of NVDA, Zoom enhancement app and Zoom.
This problem has been there even with the older version of NVDA and
Zoom. I am using Windows 8.1. I have tried the following with no avail:
1. Wit no apps
2. restart NVDA
3. Re-boot my computer.
Just wish to find out if any of you have similar problem and what can
be done? Perhaps this can help to improve future version of NVDA.
I have also use JAWS and this has not been a problem. Thanks all.

Nor have I done much testing with this, as I'm usually trying to focus
on the meeting I'm attending, but I do not expect my screen reader, no
matter what it is, to suddenly be delayed by several seconds after
arrowing down a half a dozen times with no problem whatsoever. I may
have a meeting on Saturday, so I will play around with this if that
meeting happens.

would hear something.
It might help those analyzing the problem if they knew if speech stops or is
very delayed. I didn't do enough testing to know on my machine. I may when
I attend another meeting.

I'll have to investigate that. I don't use Zoom with System Access all
that much, because most of the time I'm doing the recording, and
System Access does not find the record button when tabbing through.
I'm not sure what my friend uses when we talk on Zoom regularly, but I
know her cue to start talking is me finishing setting my timer,
meaning that System Access doesn't read the recording alert. I'll play
around with that when I attend a large meeting next.
