How to fix Custom hotkey for speaking selected text on textaloud

Post by percypierce »

Hi guys!
Happy New year!

On occasions, Textaloud stops registering the custom hotkeys when I select a body of text and then press the hotkey in order to have textaloud speak the text.

What it will do when I press the hotkey is:
Switch to the voice of the assigned to the hotkey, and not begin speaking.

Then If I were to press CTRL + C, then it will speak in the Voice Assigned by the hotkey I just pressed.

Is there a way to fix this problem without Restarting the Computer?
There is some kind of program interfering with the hotkeys, but I can't Find it.
Thanks.

Not sure what the problem could be. Would you please duplicate this problem and send a TextAloud problem report? From the TextAloud menu click Help -> Support -> Report A Problem and just mention this issue briefly in the problem report text. The problem report should give me a better idea of what is happening
