Hi, I think that Herbie is on the right track. If you have been using a different voice other than Alex, I’ve seen where updates somehow lose the voice you used to have as default. Try using the rotor to pick a different voice. Press VO-cmd-shift-down a time or two to see if you hear any speech start. Hopefully, if the rotor has not been twisted to a different control, you should initially be on the Voice choosing option. If nothing happens, you might be on one of the other options. In that case, press VO-cmd-shift-right, then keeping those keys down press the down arrow a time or two. If you still don’t get a voice, then undo what you just did by pressing VO-cmd-shift-up arrow a time or two and continue VO-cmd-shift-right then try again the VO-cmd-shift-down arrow repeating the pattern to hopefully find the setting to pick a working voice.
