JAWS 14 Beta RMC 5.0.1.8 Keyboard shortcuts have been included and tested here. alt+s to start monitoring / start recording alt+x to stop monitoring / stop recording You will continue to hear the start and stop sound you've always have heard except in one situation. When you do a library tab and then record audio situation. The start recording and stop recording buttons do toggle to the current status but when I press alt+s the start sound is not heard and pressing alt+x doesn't present the stop sound but the actual physical buttons that read as start recording and stop recording to toggle / change correctly. Simply press shift tab or tab to move away from the button and go back to the button and you will hear the correct status. This is beta.
