NVDA cutting off first letter
|
Marie
Does anyone know if you can set NVDA to stop this? Jaws just put out a fix
for it by stopping the sounds card from sleeping when not using and someone on a
chat group is having this issue with NVDA.
Personally I don’t find it all that much of a problem but some do. If
you use the new setting in Jaws, you can not use Audio ducking, which I do find
very useful.

Use a small utility called Silenzio. Read about it in this article.

I was wrong. The link doesn't take you to a page that opens as a web page. It is the direct download link for the utility.

Does this prevent NVDA from using Audio ducking?

I haven't seen any complaints of any kind about the utility. It is completely independent of the screen-reader and just sends some sort of inaudible signal to the soundcard to keep it active. I don't expect it to affect NVDA in any way.

I don't know if the JAWS solution can be turnned off or uninstalled or whatever should be possible for disabling it. But you should be able to use Silenzio with no ill effects on JAWS either. Gene

according to the podcast by Mosen, the setting is not on by default in Jaws and if you turn it on, you can't use audio ducking. So I will give the utility a try since I doubt you would ever recommend one that caused any harm.

I haven't tried it and of course I wouldn't knowingly recommend one. I'm not recommending it based on personal experience, I'm saying that its been around for quite a while and since I haven't heard any complaints and I have heard a number of times that it works, I expect it to and not to cause problems.
