Sounds like a similar problem I was having with the pk. I didn't really pay
all that much attention to it until the unit completely froze.

Subject: [Braillenote] losing speech on the VN mPower BT
Hello all.
ON occasion, while I am brailling away, the speech will suddenly stop and
nothing I can think of to do besides hitting the reset button will bring
it
back. I've only had the mPower BT for 9 days and in the early days it was
probably the fault of my fingering--getting used to the keys etc., which
caused me to do something to stop speech. But last night, after days of
not
having this problem, I was reading backwards through a sentence in the
book
reader program, a word at a time, moving rapidly but not excessively so
through the words when the speech stopped again. I tried to exit book
readerg with space plus e but no speech. The only way to get it back was
to
hit the reset button. I don't like doing this because it worries me.
I poked around through the index of the user's guide to see if there were
any topics on speech--shutting it off--getting it started again etc., but
I
found nothing that sounded right.
Is there a key combination that I could press on the mPower when speech
stops to make it speak again, aside from the reset button?
Any help is much appreciated and thanks to all in advance.
