I saw the following on another list. Hope it helps:
As has been discussed previously, Youtube apparently changed its interface a
few days ago and muted the audio by default. To unmute it and restore the
audio volume to normal using JAWS, follwo these steps:
1. Load the page containing the video you want to listen to.
2. Turn off the virtual cursor vy pressing JAWS key-Z.
3. Starting from the top of the page, tab repeatedly until you reach the
unmute button. You will have to tab quite a bit until you fianlly land on
it.
4. Once you are on the unmute button, press the space bar and then press the
up arrow key repeatedly to increase the audio volume to the desired level.
Finally, press JAWS key-Z again to turn the virtual cursor back on. HTH

Hi list members. When I go to youtube.com and choose an audio or video
it no longer starts playing. I have found a button that says unmute
and when I click on it nothing happens. I can't figure it out I have
no sighted person around to read the screen.
I am using window-eyes 8.2 and windows 7.
If any knows a solution you may contact me off list. ny help will be
greatly appreciated.
