I have noticed that when I use the left and right arrow keys to move by letter
I'm getting a lot of repetition from voiceover speaking letters that are either
before or after the letter I'm currently on. I'm also having this problem when
I type. There seems to be a lot of gerbil speech from voiceover speaking either
wrong letters or too many letters.
