Okay,
So I still cannot get the speech samples to play. I am using JAWS 15 latest, and Windows 7 and no go. Please don't reply with "I can access them no problem." That is not helpful. After all, if they are not playing for me, there are surely others that are experiencing the same problem.
Best,
Terri

Subject: [VICUG-L] NVDA/Survey on Improving the Default Speech Synthesizer
The page to listen to the speech samples, as well as to fill out a very brief survey, is available at http://www.nvaccess.org/speech-synthesizer-survey-1/
Here is the information taken from this page.
NV Access is currently undertaking research into how to best improve the default voice of NVDA. Although the voice must be understandable and some what pleasant, the voice must also be free of charge, responsive, small in size, and has the ability to speak most if not all currently supported languages.
If you are a screen reader user, we would like to ask you to help us in this research, by listening to several speech samples we have created, and then fill in a small survey to let us know which one you find most comfortable.
Speech Samples
Please listen to each of the following 5 recordings, and think about which one is most comfortable for you to listen to. You may wish to go back and listen to one or more again to help you decide. Once you have decided, please fill in the survey located below the speech samples.
