John, I have had what seems similar. I have found that shutting down and restarting Window-Eyes also seems to correct the problem which is less of a hassle than rebooting. However, you won't hear the Window-Eyes confirmation dialog, either, so you have to press SPACE to press the OK button. Then restart with the hot key.
When this happens for me it occurs right from the point Window-Eyes starts. Restarting Window-Eyes has corrected the problem each time for me and it does not recur during that session. It also does not happen every time, either. Maybe this will work for you as well until the problem can be duplicated and resolved.
