I think what I'll do is send this to Apple and include the file in
question and hope they can figure out what's going on. I find no
brackets etc. so they must be undected or something.

I've not experienced this with pdf files (yet) but this happens all
the time with source code in XTools, or even when loaded into text
edit. As far as I can determine, there's some strange interaction
with brackets, braces, tabs and dash characters that seems to
trigger this behavior. Lines of code often have these characters
in them, and it's very hit or miss as to whether any given line of
code will read properly with vo. It's very frustrating, but as you
discovered, a character by character reading sidetrip solves the
problem.
I've not reported it to apple, because I've not been able to pin
down exactly what triggers it. My guess is that those characters
are used for controling the voice internally, and certain
combinations of them cause vo to think it's supposed to receive
another command, and so it waits to get another command character
before doing anything else. That's only a guess, but it's the best
I've got.
