Ted:
Might Narrator in Win10 be a fallback as I don't use NVDA--my energy toward
learning curves now toward deciding on my DAW software of choice, and Audacity
as my replacement for Cool Edit and Sound Forge. At 67, my energy and patience
for learning curves is severely limited. (grin)

Jaws works in much the same way. It is a terrible annoyance when I am adding an
audio USB device and I lose speech to. This is why I have both jars and NVDA on
my computer. When Jaws loses its connection to the soundcard, I will then lunch
NVDA and make Jaws reroute back to its original setting. You can probably do
the same with a demo version of jaws and NVDA if you have not purchased a Jaws
license.

Hi Gary
Yes, when you connect your turntable Windows treats it as another sound
card. The same happens with USB headphones, mixers and mics. You lose speech
when you select it from NVDA because your turntable has no speaker.
What you need to do is to have NVDA using your existing soundcard and
Audacity recording from the turntable. Having connected the turntable and
convinced NVDA to output through the normal soundcard, you need to change
Audacity's input.
Open Audacity. There are two ways of making the necessary change,
either through Preferences or from a toolbar. Through Preferences:
1. Press control-p to open Preferences.
2. Press d until you get to Devices.
3. Start tabbing through the options. Leave playback on your usual
soundcard. When you get to Recording press up or down arrows until you find
the USB codec.
4. Press Enter to get back to the normal Audacity screen.
The other option is to press control-shift-f6 to get to the toolbars at
the top of the screen. Shift-tab until you reach playback and recording combo
boxes. In the recording combo box, use up/down arrows to select the USB codec.
Press Enter and press control-f6 to get back to the tracks panel.

Hi Robert,
I changed my device to my internal sound card. I noticed that when I
am in nvda settings under output I now have an usb codec. When I go to it I
lose speech again. Also when I go into audacity and try to record from my
turntable I get the sounds from the mike. Also are there any settings I need
to change in audacity? Thanks for any help.bert Hänggi

Hi David,
I have an Audio Technica turntable. How would I change where
the
speech is routed in nvda? Thanks for any help.
On my system, it's:
NVDA+Control+S, once tab and there's the list to choose from.
You might need to do that for all profiles, if you have more than one.
(NVDA+Control+P to see them)

Yep, it's normal. Troublesome sometimes, but normal.
You'll probably need to send your screen reader output to a
different
device unless there is a physical headphone jack on your
device. The
speech might be routed through the device.
What USB turntable do you have?
Best,
David
