Hi, Marc, Yes, your mileage may vary, depending on which versions of Chrome and VO and Chromevox you may be using. When you feel comfortable doing it, you might want to install the latest versions of Chrome and Chromevox. In the extension preferences, there is a "remove" button for each extension. Try using Chrome with VO off and see what happens while chromevox is speaking.
