Hi Lisette, when I've seen this, it's been because VoiceOver is using your on-board sound, but the default sound output device has been set to something else, maybe an airplay device. It would be worth going into Sound preferences and verifying what your output is set to. Jonathan Mosen Mosen Consulting Blindness technology eBooks, tutorials and training http://Mosen.org
