Hi, If you have access to a sighted person, try going into your VO Utility with VO-f8 and then make sure that the Mute Speech item is not checked in the Sound pane. I don't remember specifically the name of the pane in the Leopard version of VO, so, it could be under Speech or something else, you may need to have them look through the various panes to check some of that out.
HTH. Later...
