My experience with voice clips is that whatever I do in system voice is immediately reflected after syncing with nano. I can change the rate, change the voice, Now, it does take a while but even if there is nothing else to do, the sync process generates voice cilips. I cannot speak to the windows experience but I have not had to turn off and then back on spoken menus.

I have reported it though. I'd suggest all yall call Apple Care and do the same, so that we can get an updated patch. I will say that unchecking that box to enable speech, hitting apply, then rechecking the box, and hitting apply again definitely did the trick over here. It'll take quite a while to resync the speech down though, so be aware. Mine took about 30 minutes, but remember, I got an older Mac only with u s b 1.1 ports, so that could a been part of the issue with my lag. Anyway, give that a shot, and get back with me on your findings so that I can relay 'em to Apple.
