Hi all, Thanks for the responses. All of these are both ways of turning VO on and off, which is what I’ve been doing. I just thought that, as on the phone, there was a way to just turn speech on and off. If there’s not, I’ll just keep doing what I’ve been doing, which is triple clicking the

Hi all, For some reason, since the last update, when I start our Apple TV, it starts without speech. I think, though, that VO is on, because I hear the other VO noises. I can always just turn VO off and back on, and then all is fine, but I’m thinking I should be able to just activate speech.
