Uh, definitely definitely not! That would mute her audio completely, not just
Voiceover, but all audio. Bad move.

Hi all! you can try fn key with f 10 as a toggle that would free up option
key for something else. All the best.

Hi,
You can simply press command+f5 to toggle VoiceOver off and toggle it back
on with command+f5 when the service is over.

Hi everyone,
I plan to listen to a continuation of the services I was listening to
yesterday, this morning. Prior to going to the site, I will check out the
suggestions given to me here to see if they work before I allow Alex to be
disrespectful again. I'm truly surprised there is not a native keystroke to
mmute voiceover as there is a trackpad gesture. I feel an email going to Apple
accessibility. Let's hope it doesn't take them six updates to get it done.

Is there no actual keystroke to mute VO by default then?

If you have a braille display, you can use space with M to mute
voiceover.

You can also use the keyboard commander. For example, I have it set
so option-m mutes sounds and speech. To do this:
* Open the VoiceOver Utility and choose Commanders from the
Categories table.
* Select the Keyboard Commander tab, be sure the commander is on by
checking the checkbox, and move past the table to the Add button. Activate that
button.
* You will be placed on a text field, even if VoiceOver doesn't tell
you so. Press the key to be used (such as M), then vo-right to the menu button.
* In that menu is a list of commands, sorted into categories. I
believe the item you want, Mute VoiceOver, is in the Sounds submenu. Once you
find it, hit enter.
* Hit option-m to make sure things worked (it's a toggle, so hitting
it again will bring VO back). If it worked, you can close the Utility. If not,
let the list know and we'll try to figure out what happened.

Hi Pam. If I remember correctly, with track pad commander on, you
could double tap with three fingers on the trackpad to mute Voiceover just like
double tapping with three fingers to mute it on an iPhone. If I'm wrong about
this, someone correct me.

Subject: Keystroke form muting voiceover
Hi everyone,
I was attempting to listen to a service over the Internet this
afternoon. In so doing Alex continually seemed to want to give me every
notification I would never have gotten had I been doing something I could've
gotten away from or been able to repeat. Normally I don't mind. However in
cases like this, is there a keystroke to mute voiceover until such a service or
meeting is over? I hit the control key to shut him up, however he has since
earned the name disrespectful Alex.
