[NFBCS] Jaws and sound cutting out

[Curtis Chong]

John:

Try the following link:
https://www.canadialog.com/articles/3411/the-sound-of-your-screen-reader-is-
poor-and-sluggish-see-how-to-fix-it

It will give you Silenzio version 2.1. I just installed it, and my antivirus
did not flag this as a problem.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong

Hi Curtis. I got Silencio and tried to run it. My virus detection software
would not let me install it however. Any comments on the following list from
that software:
" 5 security vendors and no sandboxes flagged this file as malicious

BitDefenderTheta
Gen:NN.ZelphiF.34266.SU0 at aaZsNBhi

Bkav Pro
W32.AIDetect.malware2

SecureAge APEX
Malicious

SentinelOne (Static ML)
Static AI - Suspicious PE

VBA32
TScope.Trojan.Delf"

Interesting. You didn't have any such problems?
John

Hello Tracy:

Here is a link to a web page which will enable you to download a program
called Silenzio.

Here is a link to the executable:
http://www.stefankiss.sk/programy/silenzio/Silenzio_1.0_setup.exe

Just run this program on your computer, and the problem goes away.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong

I am having the problem with sound cutting out from a hard-wired speaker
after Jaws has been quiet for a minute.  I tell Jaws to read, or move my
cursor, and it doesn't start talking until the middle of the line.  

I located the instructions Jaws has for fixing this problem by continually
sending silence to the speaker, but my version of Jaws doesn't have the
settings described in the fix.  

I am running Jaws 2020.2001.  I am not going to update my Jaws version.  I
sweated blood getting it to work with terminal emulation, and I was not able
to replicate what I did on any other laptop, so I'm not making any major
changes.  

That given, is there anything I can do to stop the audio starting late? I
could call Jaws tech support, but I don't have much confidence they'd be
able to help me with my older version of Jaws.

Tracy
