OK, let's try something.
This is probably gonna sound dumb, I know, but let's see if it even is the
trackpad in the first place, or maybe corrupted kext drivers somewhere.
First of all, try unplugging the track pad, then see if it persists.
If it does, then try going to system preferences, and create another user
account, login as that new user, then see if it continues. This will help
us pinpoint down if it's an issue with your user profile, or if it is OS
wide specific. I know this is a step that 99% of the time is ignored and
not thought of taking seriously, but trust me, you'd be surprised how often
or not the problem is within the user account itself. If this wind up being
the case, let us know, and I can then walk you through... at your own
risk... enabling the root user, and migrating your old user settings and
account over to the new user, then redisabling the root account when
done/deleting the old corrupted account. It's a kind of risky process, and
that's why I don't want to tell you how to do it just quite yet, unless it's
absolutely 100 percent our last avenue to take when all else fails.
Another thing also you could try doing is booting to the mountain lion
recovery partition, then go to the disk utility manager, and run a verify
followed by a permissions repair on the volume in question. I know, you're
probably thinking, how could that fix a Voiceover issue like this. oh
huhho, trust me! You'd be surprised!
Anyway, try those things, and let us know what happens, then we'll go from
there accordingly.
Chris.

I thought so too but I even turned my track pad off and it still occurs.

Could it simply be caused by inadvertently moving the mouse pointer on the
trackpad?
Just a thought.

I've been noticing for the past couple months or so, my machine saying
"Apple submenu" every time I move the cursor around or type individual
characters in simple edit boxes. Example: highlight a file in Finder and
then hit the return key to rename it. then start typing the new name or
cursor around in there to edit wherever. Do not interact with this edit
control yet. For me, I keep hearing that phrase every time I move the
cursor or type. Now if I interact then it stops doing that. I also get
this in TextEdit if I don't interact there but that is obviously a place
where I would always want to interact. I've never had this situation in
the past; has anyone here experienced this? What could be causing VO to
keep saying "Apple submenu" I don't have any menus forced open or any of
that.
Thanks for any ideas or help.
