First, good luck, particularly now since the newer versions of Skype aren't as accessible. To answer your question, you will probably need to run Jaws on a separate soundcard or USB soundcard and Skype off the other soundcard, using headphones with a splitter cable so you can put one channel on Skype and the other channel on the Jaws screen-reader.

Hi Teresa, Plantronics used to make a dual channel headset that you would hear Jaws through one ear, & the person you're talking to from the other ear. You can call this place, Headset Direct at this phone#: 1-800-914-7996. Or check out their website here: https://www.headsetsdirect.com/ Or, https://www.headsetsdirect.com/hw261n-dc-supraplus-dual-channel.html I would talk to them, and explain to them exactly what you need, to insure you're purchasing the correct headset. - Original Message - From: Teresa Arroyo To: Jaws users list Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2018 12:30 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and conversations Thank you for your response .

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and conversations
In the interim before you are able to get the new headset or have your I.T section division reconfigure whatever needs to be done perhaps if all you're doing is talking back-and-forth couldn't you silence jaws with the keystroke insert spacebar S? Just a thought.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and conversations
Hi Teresa, Congratulations for your new job. If your only concern is other people listening your JAWS via Skype or other VoIP programs, nobody via these programs will hear your JAWS if you are hearing it from the headsets. If your particular headsets are recognized in Windows as another sound cards which is not set as the default one, you can send JAWS output to the headsets by going to the JAWS menu or window (INSERT+J), Utilities, Sound Cards and there selecting the item corresponding to the headsets. Hope it helps! -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List On Behalf Of Teresa Arroyo Llosa Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2018 4:40 PM To: Jaws Users List Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and conversations Hello all, Windows 8.1 Jaws 16.
