To my knowledge, the CONTROL NUMPAD 5 key is meant to read the line containing the cursor and should not be dependent upon the mouse, even if it is on the numeric pad. What kind of control are you working within? I have seen custom controls that have a cursor but where multiple columns of text are present and Window-Eyes reads across all columns. Are you saying that you get different results when you use UP ARROW or DOWN ARROW?
There is some extra logic build into the CONTROL NUMPAD 5 or CENTER key to automatically read the selected menu item and such. If you don't need it, you could try turning Highlight Track on the General menu off in case that Window-Eyes is getting confused by highlighting. Otherwise, what application is this occurring in, maybe someone here has had some experience with that particular software.
