Issue with VO stopping speaking

By Scott Duck, 22 March, 2023

iOS and iPadOS

In recent versions of both Mac OS and IOS, I find that Voiceover will very frequently stop speaking mid sentence or mid word. This is usually, but not always, on a webpage. On my Mac, it usually happens when moving through elements with VO right and left or just left and right with quick nav. In IOS, it usually happens when flicking right and left through elements. Focus will land on a block of text and Voiceover will read fine for a while and after a seemingly random period of time, it will just stop. Move to another block of text or back to the same one and the behavior may or may not repeat. This started on my Mac when I updated to Big Sur and it started on my iPhone when I updated to IOS 16. I use Alex as my voice on both. Have others seen this and does anyone have any idea as to the cause or how to stop it?
