On one of the mac blindness mailing lists someone sent as message subject such a string as a malicious prank. Until it was purged from the list the solution was to use another voice, it was an alex centric problem.

It consisted of letter paris repeated over and over again. That might provide a clue as to what is causing it in code.

Hi,
It sounds like you have found a string that crashes Voiceover.  Try using 
another voice to see if this solves the problem.  If the crashing stops, go 
back to Alex and advance through the strings one at a time until you reach the 
problem string and then change the string to something else and see if this 
fixes the problem.  If you can find eyes this may make finding the problem 
easier.  Please report the string to Apple accessibility.

Hi

I run OSX 10.115 on iMac 5k 27 inch late 2015.
I'm having a problem Voiceover crashing my computer. I use just Alex voice. 
Screen just goes black and reboots.
If someone does the exactly same task without Voiceover, it doesn't happen.
For example, adding input files in xcode project > build phases > Run Script.
Also it doesn't happens 100% all the time.
Looking at /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports, there are bunch of coreaudiod and a 
couple of kernel files.
Inside ~/Library/logs/DiagnosticReports, there are bunch of xcode and voiceover 
files.
Based on the files, it might have to do with sound device, but I just use 
system built-in output.
I never had this problem before. Maybe it's the latest OSX update. It reminds 
me Windows. I'm not impressed with Apple lately.
Does anyone have a problem where Voiceover just stops talking, and the computer 
reboots?
Thanks,
