There are settings in visiovoice prefs which would conflict with vo if turned on but they should be fairly obvious for instance, if you use vo, you don't need the dialogues to be spoken by visio voice. One nice thing about using visiovoice at least I have heard this from visiovoice users is that it makes it possible to use microsoft office apps.
