[Trainer-Talk] Spanish braille with JAWS

Hello Mario,
Yes I do know how to adjust the keyboard voice; however, when I am in
the voice adjustment dialog box and choose keyboard voice as the voice
to adjust, Juan is listed as the only voice. I am not sure why JAWS
speaks in the Allison voice as the keyboard voice. Again I am thinking
that this could be related to having the language pack installed but I
am not certain.
Ultimately, I would want all to be announced correctly for my student.
