Hi John,
Well it seems to be the Siri voices that are the problem. I just changed
successfully to the Tom and Hanst voice. But with the Siri voices, although
they say they're changing, they don't. Oh well.

Hi Mary,
I haven't messed with the voices, but can you select or deselect the
voices in the language screen of VoiceOver? I will take a look at see here as
soon as I can and mess with the new SIRI voice.
Take Care

I know the good folks at Apple vis noted a problem with the new Siri voices,
and I was messing around in my language settings trying to get the female
voice included in my rotor in place of the Eva voice, while leaving the Alex
voice as my default. So I have default US English which is Alex, and before
I screw things up, I had Ava as my US English voice not default but still in
the rotor as US English. I hope that makes sense. I ended up accidentally
getting rid of Alex out of the rotor completely. I eventually got it back, I
can't remember how because I was doing so much stuff trying to figure out
what was happening. I got the female Siri voice in there at some point. I
had to delete the Eva voice, which is fine, since I really I'm not that
thrilled with it. Anyway, to make this long ramble short, somehow Ava
re-downloaded it self, and now I have that again as my non-default US
English voice. I would like to: one get rid of Ava and make that stick, and
two, put the voice of my choice into that setting. I want to leave Alex
alone as default. How can I do this?
