Hi, It is really crashing. A Chrome quit unexpectedly message is displayed and a crash report is created. This seems to be happening whether VoiceOver is on or not. I am using Samantha as my Mac system voice and so that is what chromevox is using. Do you all think that Samantha is the problem? Perhaps I will temporarily change the system voice back to Alex and see if that solves the problem. I must say that I am not impressed at this point.
