Hi Tom,
Ah, that makes sense then.
I just installed NVDA 2014.2 and insert + shift + S does still toggle
sleep mode on and off for me.
I opened the NVDA 2014.2 Commands Quick Reference.
In the ninth row of the first table of that document I find this:
Toggle application sleep mode on and off
NVDA+shift+s (desktop key)
NVDA+shift+z (laptop key)
none
sleep mode disables all NVDA commands and speech/braille output for the
current application. This is most useful in applications that provide
their own speech or screen reading features. Press this command again to
disable self voicing mode.
So it looks like insert + shift + S is only for the desktop keyboard
layout. Perhaps you are using the laptop keyboard layout and that's why
it didn't work for you?
Thanks for the clarification.
I'd also like to note that I do appreciate your efforts to ensure people
are giving out accurate information.
I only brought this up to help.
Thanks,
Ian Reed

Hi Ian,
Well, all I can say is I have NVDA 2014.2 and insert+shift+s does
nothing on my system. I don't know what the problem or issue is, but
that command does nothing for me. So based on that is why I said what
I said.
Cheers!

Thomas said: By the way the command to silence speech in NVDA is
insert+s not
insert+shift+s. Do be careful when giving out information that it is
accurate as possible as people are being entirely too casual about
freely giving out false information of late.
I say: Ishan's statement was true. Insert + shift + S puts NVDA into
sleep mode for the current application.
Insert + S toggles speech output, which is what I usually use, but the
fact remains that insert + shift + S does what he stated.
Cheers,
