There are lots of choices for sound card items in Control Panel Sounds and
Audio Devices, and I have no idea where most of them came from. But in
reading the FS bulletins, I found out that Jaws uses the first installed
sound card on a system and that this overrides the default choice of sound
card in the sounds and audio devices. In my case, we had to reinstall our
sound card at one point, so I think Jaws now sees something else as the
first installation and therefore doesn't come up talking. I edited the
jfw.ini file to tell Jaws to always use the sound card I want, and
everything is fine.

Do you have more than one sound card to use?
