Than a second press to start speech again. In the last two operating systems I don’t seem to be able to do this any longer. Am I missing something? In most cases when I press the control key VO just keeps talking and than at the end says control. This is because I have the modifier keys set to speak when pressed. So, for example in mail I may press down arrow to hear a message and then want to stop speech with control. I press it and it just keeps talking. Is there another key now to obtain silence and then return to speech? A little more experimentation is indicating to me that if I turn VO off and on again the function seems to work again for a time. Are others experiencing the same? I find I have to toggle VO off and on a lot lately to get it to work correctly. This happens a lot when editing text in mail.
