Paul - When this happens with me, I find five presses of CMD f5 usually works,
it takes a couple of seconds after the fifth press -

Hello,
I am running Mac OS 10.9 on my 2009 iMac.
Sometimes VO refuses to speak
I have found that usually typing in my password, with no audible feedback and
pressing enter will log me back into my MBA and Voiceover will be back up and
running immediately. But I bet the Command + 4 or 5 key presses may work for
you too. Definitely try typing in your password blindly
Okay, When I started having this problem in july or august of 2012 after buying
my first Mac, I used to mess around with the volume buttons, and try turning VO
off and on a couple of times. Eventually, maybe after a few minutes, VO would
come up talking. I asked about this problem on the list
All I can add, is that I discovered the 5 times myself, from just trying to
resolve this issue in the early days of having this MBA. I think it needs to be
an odd number of times because it has already gone off, and doing it 3 times
doesn't seem to work -

Chris,
I can't say I have. But then again I haven't made a habit of turning volume
down so low, so perhaps it's something reproducible. I don't really care to try
though. :-)
All the best,
Zack.

From time to time Voiceover mutes itself on my phone but it does not appear
to have anything to do with me adjusting the volume. It happens
unpredictably. When it first happened I thought I had a hardware problem
with the speaker.
Weirdly on these occasions Voiceover can still be heard through
I do know there is a bug that I told apple about. If you accidentally hit both
the up and down volume buttons together voiceover gets killed. It even kills
triple click of home. That might be what is going on.

Why not rest the springboard when this is happening. it's quicker then a power
off. Just hit power 5 times and wait for it to do its thing.
Take care.

What is that? I've not done that before.
Thanks,
