Re: [JAWS-Users] getting office sounds for office 365

[Jim Flusche]

May be the old standalone office sounds is blocking the new included office 
sounds from working in office 365. Give Microsoft support a phone call to make 
sure of the correct steps to take to resolve this issue. I am sure the answer 
is simple. Because you do see the Ease of Access options in word 2016, you 
should be getting the office sounds. So, give them a call for help with this 
issue. Smiles.

Hi Jim,

Unfortunately, these Microsoft instructions aren't working for me as right as 
it should.
I have both 32 and 64-bit Office versions on different machines, and both were 
running the old Office Sounds add-in which users had to download and install 
manually.
While in 32-bit the update worked fine when it rolled to me, it is not the case 
on 64-bit, where sounds simply stopped working. Although I now have the Ease of 
Access options category on 64-bit and the Provide Feedback with Sound option 
which previously was in Advanced, the sounds simply don't work, and there's no 
combobox to choose a sound scheme. Office sound events in Windows Sounds 
Control Panel applet still remain, but they don't produce any sound.
Should I remove the add-in and run an Office online repair, or do you think 
there's a better alternative to test first?

Thanks in advance!
