Yes, I know when this happens, but on reboot I am getting no error from iw or outlook saying it had problems. Looking through the error logs now.

The need to reboot or at leastlog out at that point always produces the window souns. The windows sound for the error message that window-eyes is already loaded still plays. You can be doing anything it seems when this loss of speech will randomly happen. I created the batch file as suggested a while back and using it does not allow window-eyes to be reloaded after it is used. I really wish we could at least be told what the cause of this problem is instead of us all validating it and nothing ever coming of it and hearing nothing in response other than blaming the windows bug of loss of all sound when that is not what happen.
