looks like I struck gold on this thread. 
hitting Command F5 4 times sounds weird, that's like turning VO on and off 
twice. Or, is it a matter of pressing the key combo 4 times quickly causing a 
different function than just pressing it normallyy.

  I have this issue as well and it seems to be worsening, Phil. Sometimes 
Braille works but not speech.

    upon waking from sleep mode, often VO will not speak. I have to mess around 
with the volume keys to get some system sounds going, then turn VO off and back 
on a few times before it will finally come up talking. It takes about two or 
three minutes to do all this and get VO talking again.

    it doesn't happen consistently, but more often than not, VO will go silent 
after sleep mode, or a prolonged period of computer inactivity.

    Actually, it seems to be tied into system sounds, since I won't get any of 
the thunking, beeping, quacking sounds that occur when you do something to 
invoke a system sound, whether VO is turned on or not. So, maybe it's not a VO 
problem but a system problem?

    Any ideas suggestions or advice are welcome - it's getting a little 
annoying.
