Hi everyone, this one isn't really a show stopper, but it's a little annoying and now that I've noticed it, I'm kind of challenged by the seeming randomness of it. I'm not the biggest fan of the Alex voice, but over the last few days I've been using it to see if more use will cause it to grow on me. I have VO set up to raise the pitch for capital letters. This morning, when I was backspacing over some characters, I noticed that Alex wasn't raising the pitch of uppercase letters. At first I was worried that my keyboard was developing a hardware fault, but then I found that when I was arrowing around, the pitch was in fact raised correctly. I have my keyboard echo set to off, but when I enabled it, again I found that as I type, pitch is raised as expected, but only when I backspace over characters is there no pitch change. I tried the same thing on my fiancee's Mac, and when backspacing over characters, it all worked fine. One difference is that on her Mac, she has it speak the word "delete" prior to deleting something and I don't. So...I exported my VO preferences, and reset everything to defaults from the File Menu of the VO utility. This sets everything back to how it came out of the factory, keyboard echo, high verbosity, the lot. And still I don't get a pitch change when I backspace over uppercase letters. Does anyone have any clue what might be going on? It's not so bad that I'd want to do a clean install of the whole OS or anything like that, but as I say it's a tiny nuisance and now it's got me curious. Thanks.
