Hi Dark, That's a good question, and I'm not sure I'm the right person to ask. I rarely use Jaws any more myself. That said, I do know in the versions of Jaws I've used I can't just flick speech on and off the way I can with NVDA or the way you can with Supernova. At least, that has been my experience. there may be a way to do what you want to do, but I'm just not familiar with any current Jaws releases to give you an answer without downloading the Jaws demo, installing it, and playing around with it to find out if what you are asking is possible or not. In NVDA one can press insert+s until it disables speech or enables speech which is quick and easy.
Cheers!
