[NFBCS] Strangeness in Zoom

Steve, I've notice that same thing. I thought I had done something strange
to my Zoom settings.

Recently on two computers, I am noticing that Zoom is speaking CONTROL_ID
information, and when looking at settings, some settings seem not to be
spoken.  The pattern seems to be that if I TAB to a setting that tells one
to press F6 to go to Pop-up that controls are no longer spoken.  I have
tried pressing F6 in case a pop-up can be closed but nothing speaks.  For a
specific example, going to the Audio tab and tabbing through the speaker
settings one will encounter a control that says "For gallery or immersive
view only. Not supported with wireless headphones. Press F6 to reach the
popup".  At that point, pressing TAB speaks nothing.  On occasion, speech
has returns, but stops when I hit the next control with a pop-up.  The
behavior seems to be the same with JAWS, NVDA, and Narrator.  I am using
Windows 11 on both machines.  Everything seems to work if I navigate with
the JAWS Touch controls.  Is this something that is happening to others?

 

Best regards,

 

Steve Jacobson
