Hi All,


I've been using Zoom at work a lot lately, sometimes with Narrator, 
Sometimes with NVDA, depending on what else I'm doing during the session.


What I notice is that NVDA doesn't announce some of the chat 
information. For example, when I log into a Zoom session, I'm usually 
put into a waiting room. Sometimes the host asks me to identify myself. 
With NVDA, I don't hear that information; in fact, I didn't know that 
was happening until a sighted colleague pointed it out. Once I'm in the 
meeting, I'm sent to a breakout room. Sometimes NVDA announces that I'm 
being prompted to join the breakout room; more often, it doesn't, so I 
tab around to find the Join button. Then whether in the main meeting or 
breakout room, Other chats are being sent to the group, like "X is ready 
so let's do Y next," but with NVDA, I rarely hear any of that. Since 
it's pretty distracting and overwhelming, I mostly don't mind, but then 
again, sometimes the chats involve me, so I really should know.


Is what I'm describing an NVDA bug, or is there a setting I can adjust 
to hear more of the chats.


The versions of Zoom and NVDA are current, but Windows 10 is 1809 if 
that matters.


Thanks for any wisdom.


Ciao
