For those of you having this problem if you switch to DEC does it go
away? I want to see if it is definately Eloquence related or not.

Gail and all, since I reported that the odd behavior of speech going
silent had stopped occuring, I have fount that my conclusion was
premature. It happened again while working with an audio file in
Goldwave, thus offering further support to Gail's observation that
the problem is still in evidence. Additionally, while Gail is on
AOL, I am not, so whatever is going on here would seem to be
unrelated to AOL. In my case, one second everything was fine. The
next there was no speech at all.
While it is true that I happen to have a second screen reader to
step in when such events take place, this is not an acceptable
solution. In my case it did allow me to save my work in progress,
but that was due in no part to Window-eyes, as Eloquence would not
reengage until I restarted the computer.
I should also add that I have noted Window-Eyes beta 2 going silent
randomly while still using ETI eloquence with beta 2. In order to
confirm my findings, I loaded beta 2 on a second computer. It too
falls silent in seemingly random fashion. The only difference
between my experience and that of others here is that I experienced
no such issues with beta 1.
I'm not sure how helpful my observations might be, but I've done my
best to report everything that might apply. I hope it helps.

Larry and All:
I have reported this problem several times and so have others.
Since I've taken off the ETI Eloquence software, it happens less
but it still happens and I don't have backup speech to go to. I
don't understand scripts as of yet so if there is a way to unload
WinEyes and start it again, I don't know it and it sounds like
there are problems with that anyway. It happens when I'm reading
e-mail with AOL software, it happens on websites. I don't think it
has ever happened in an offline program, but I use the web so much
that saying that doesn't mean much.
Gail
I have received no response to my inquiry. Perhaps this is due to the fact
that I couldn't provide enough information to allow any conclusions to be
drawn. At any rate, since uninstalling ETI Eloquence the new Eloquence has,
at least so far, stopped going silent. I agree with Gail and others who have
advanced the position that uninstalling ETI appears to allow for more
stability from the new eloquence.
