I know what you mean by the first, and I believe folks indicated that if you 
make the screen saver features very long that it will go away.

The second issue I have experienced and played with a bit but didn't figure 
out. What I did notice is that if you turn off cursor tracking with VO F3 then 
it only speaks once. I wonder if there is an option to speak the item with 
focus at a different speed or pitch? I rarely go to the desktop anymore now 
that folders that are in the dock work better with VoiceOver. 

                Best wishes,

Jonathan
