I tried the updated TTS app from that thread.  The new version reads
AlertDialog titles and messages now, although it still does not read
other non-focusable text on the screen.  Perhaps I'm not aware of an
input function that will prompt TTS to read the entire screen.  I'll
take my follow-up questions to that group.

Thanks for the info and link.
