Hi Jeff, It's interesting you mention Safari. I don't run into this exact problem often while using it, but occasionally I do have instances where VO will suddenly restart itself for no apparent reason. This isn't something I can reliably reproduce either, nor does it happen often enough to be crippling. I wonder if the two issues are related somehow? Best, Zack.
