Hi all, I've gotten rid of all possible trackpad gestures that may interfere with any of the voice over speech attributes (rate, pitch, etc) but I'm still having to restart voice over after a little while on my system, at which point the local language english voice announces randomly before it gives place to alex (the default voice).
This behaviour is really starting to get on my nerves as I tend to do things quickly and between different apps. Just some background, i'm on a macbook 16 with 32 gb of ram and something like 8 cores, 2 tb of ssd disc space. I should not be having this kind of behaviour. Is this because my local language is australian and I'm using the alex compact voice for all of my tasks? What I don't get is that all of my voice over speech parameters are set to alex, all at same pitch, rate, volume etc. But when i restart voice over, the australian voice always turns up for a few announcements before disappearing. This is very bugged out and I want to squash this ASAP as every time I have to restart it interferes with my focus, and after 10-20 times of this happening in a day of work, I start to think of different ways of destroying the laptop. Anyone know if theres another property or setting somewhere which actually has the local english voice conflicting with my voice over settings? For example, if I press right option t, the time is announceed, but with the australian voice. I want it to be alex, everywhere, no situation specific voice change, it seems to cause those conflicting announcement issues.
