Hi there,
I'd actually like to add to this. I've got a USB soundcard to which I'd like
to direct voiceover and system sounds because I wish to hook my main
soundcard up to a speaker system. Is there such a preference with voiceover
which would make this so? If not I assume the only likely alternative is to
make the redirection in the audio player to the USB card. But, vice versa
would be more appropriate in this case.
Cheers

Hi Matthew,
You asked about whether you could send VoiceOver's speech and the system
sounds through another sound card or through Bluetooth headsets.
Are you just trying to find a wireless solution that lets you work
without being tethered to your Mac? If so, here's a thread from earlier
this year about wireless Bluetooth headsets on the Mail Archive pages:
http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40macvisionaries.com/msg28074.html
This is Greg Kearney's post about how, with a wireless bluetooth keyboard
and headphone setup, such as his wife uses with a Mac, VoiceOver can also
usefully be put to work by sighted users.
To read through the later posts in the archived thread with Safari, just
press Control-N to go to the next post in the thread. You'll see Shaun's
comment about how he uses a Logitech headset this way. If you want to
move back to the previous post in the archived thread, use Control-P.
HTH
Cheers,
Esther
