Hi, Use ctrl-cmd-a-a to toggle ChromeVox on and off. I usually don't have both running simultaneously, but do in some rare cases. I've set CV to have the female Susan voice, and VO to be Alex, so I know which one is talking to me at any given time. You can change the speech rate of CV on the fly with ctrl-cmd left and right bracket. These are the keys just to the right of the letter p key.
Specific things to note when using CV are that it is a browser based screen reader. Therefore, MacOS menus, items in the browser Toolbar etc are not read by CV, these still need to be read by VO. So, sometimes, you'll get nothing out of CV because focus is outside of the web area. You can press cmd-r to reload the page, press tab a number of times to bring focus back into the web area, or turn VO on and see where you're at. Later...

In the past, there were issues if the two were running simultaneously and one had to off-load VoiceOver to run ChromeVox. Still the case?
