I agree, and it doesn't (or shouldn't at least) matter which voice
a user uses. I hear two different voices speaking over eachother at
times, or two of the same voice, so the system is capable of doing this.
Thanks for the note.

Actually what I've noticed is at times they can speak at the same
time with neither interrupting the other. This is random so it is
possible, but something is causing the speech processes to step on
each other. And this is why I'll be pestering Apple again and again
about this.

Well that's a bug that needs fixing. Yes, that's what happened. I
changed the voice to Victoria for the time announce. And then Alex
rudely cut her off before she could say all of 3:30. Victoria only
said 3 and was cut off by Alex.

Is that true also if you set a different voice for the time? I
set Kathy
for that function. So if Alex is talking, will Kathy just talk
also at the
same time? Or will Alex stop so Kathy can talk. Or if Alex is
talking,
will Kathy not be heard saying the time at all?
I guess I'm going to find out in about 4 minutes!
Thanks for this info, by the way. I never knew about it. handy
little item
to know.

vo will interupt anything the system voice says when it speaks
or, the
system voice will interupt vo sometimes.

What do you mean if you're lucky enough to have a friend who does
not use VO? I can set these options with VO active.
-Or are you saying that VO will interrupt the time when it's
spoken?…
