It's interesting. I rarely have experienced this quiet dock thing until It came up on this list today. I have had instances in which switching between active windows has produced only a clicking noise and no speech. I usually just switch VO off and on to solve it. That worked for the Dock today as well. To me, though, it's better then the screen reader entirely hanging up and you have to fight with the alt control delete mess or just reboot the whole system.
