Hello,
I have also had problems with one of my Macs when putting it to sleep. I
am experiencing the same behavior when I wake it back up again. I can
get the VoiceOver sounds to play, however, no matter how many times I
try to toggle VoiceOver on and off, I get nothing, and I am forced to
reboot the machine to get VoiceOver back. My Macs are up-to-date on
everything. Sometimes, a permissions repair will help for a little
while, but, sometimes not. It's weird. I did not have this behavior in
Mavericks.
I have also had a problem with slow download speeds. What I did was to
go into System Preferences, then to Network, and then find Wi-Fi in the
list, click the Advanced Button, and under the Wi-Fi Tab, there is a
table. This table lists the networks you have connected to before. Once
you find the network you are connected to in that table, VO right until
you get to the "Remove Profile" button. Then, click that and tell it
that you are sure that you want to do this, as a confirmation dialog
comes up asking you if you are sure.
Then, click OK. Then, close System Preferences being sure to save your
changes.
Then, turn Wi-Fi Off, and back on again. Doing this will actually forget
the network. Then, find your network in the list of available networks,
and reconnect to it.
I did that, and it fixed the problem for me.
I apologize if I have forgotten anything, I am doing this completely
from memory, and do not have any macs here to look at to make sure I
gave the right directions.
I hope this helps some,
Jeffrey

Ever since upgrading my MBP15 (built around 2008, 4G RAM), random
things have been changing, every time I put my Mac to sleep and wake
it up again. For example: Safari will not access my banking website
(www.usbank.com <http://www.usbank.com>), and shows an empty HTML pane
after I enter my password. However, I can log into the same website
with the same user name and password with my iPad’s US Bank app, no
problem. Every other page seems to load fine, but my download speed
continues to be low.
The next odd thing was that, when I woke my Mac this morning,
VoiceOver wouldn’t talk, nor did shutting it off and relaunching it
help; I had to shut off the mac and restart it to regain VO. When I
did this, the system voice had changed from Samantha to Alex, even
though I downloaded the Samantha voice upgrade. Very odd. One day,
I’ll wake up my Mac and it’ll be talking in Swahili backwards with a
German accent.
