Hi Marvin, I don't have any experience with screen-readers, but here is a suggestion.
It seems the only place you have defined a font is on "body". Maybe it just reads out the explicit attributes you give the header, as in "center". Try defining the same font-family on the header, as well, to see if it works then. If that does not work, maybe it only reads out the header font-family if it differs from the rest. Try defining a different font-family for the headers.
