Maybe the VO navigation reads it differently.  Come to think of it, I had a 
bunch of graphics or something in an article a while back so I stopped reading 
text that way.  I had forgotten about that.  I use the item chooser if I know 
the subject of the article that I want to read an once I get to the text, I hit 
enter to select it and then VO/a to read it to the end.
