Yes, this will work. But if it's silent, it's also possible that the voice has just gone down in volume; I've had that happen though not when installing Infovox. As for getting rid of infovox, that may not be necessary either when you figure out what happened. -- Cheryl May the words of my mo

You may not have to. Assuming vo is otherwise running normally, use the vo-cmd-arrow commands; by default up/down will change voice, so hit vo-cmd-down several times to set vo to a working voice. Once you do that, you should have no trouble getting rid of Infovox and re-selecting your preferred
