Andrea,
Windows Vista and Windows 7 include a feature where the operating system
automatically ducks any background audio whenever services such as
GWConnect are used. This has the unfortunate consequence of also turning
down your software speech synthesizer.
To disable this:
1. Press the Windows key to open the Start Menu.
2. Enter "sound," and press the Down Arrow until you reach the Control
Panel applet.
3. Control-Tab until you reach the "Communications" tab.
4. Your keyboard focus lands in a group of radio buttons. Press the
Down Arrow until you reach "Do Nothing."
5. Press Alt-A to activate the "Apply" button.
6. Press Enter to close the dialog.
Now, when you make or receive Skype calls, your Windows audio settings
will be left alone.
Regards,
Steve

I notice that when I leave a voice message the WE volume drops and does
not restore until WE is restarted.
Has anyone else had this experience?
