Thanks Tim. Yes, it's the inconsistency that bothers me. And yes you
have to turn VO off and on again to get it to work, but, as said,
sometimes the only way I can get it to work again is to reset to
default voices, or at least one of the original ones.
Does it make any difference where the dock is positioned on the
screen as to how VO seems to behave or is this irrelevant?

Hi Dennis,
I don't think that this issue is limited to Cepstral voices. I
have noted similar concerns with Apple's voices and I believe that
there is mention of it way back in the archives. Good luck finding
it but I'm sure that it's there somewhere. The only thing that
I've found to work consistently is to turn off VO and then turn it
right back on again using cmd+f5. Other things have worked
occasionally but not consistently. You can confirm that it is the
same issue when attempting to navigate the Dock by the clicking
noise. I believe that VO somehow loses focus or some other thing
that is beyond me happens to VO and it just doesn't work properly.
I don't believe that refreshing the screen would actually do
anything if it could be done anyway. My Dock is set to be hidden
most of the time unless VO brings it up or the mouse is moved to
the bottom of the screen and I still get the problem occasionally.
Just something I've learned to live with.
Later...
