Hi Robbie, have you checked whether this is a screen reader problem? When the problem occurs, what happens if you restart Jaws, or run narrator (ctrl+windows key+u turns it on or off, and you can run it while Jaws is still running).

I’m experiencing a strange phenomenon after Audacity has been running for a while. When pressing alt-t JAWS announces Tracks as expected. However, the Tracks menu does not open as usual. I need to press cursor down to actually enter it. Then the first item (Add New) is announced. When I then press either n or cursor right to enter the Add New submenu, I’m suddenly in the File menu. It’s impossible to add a new track this way. I then assigned ctrl-shift-n to the New Stereo Track command and this works. However, even when pressing this shortcut, sometimes the context menu pops up. When closing it by pressing Escape the new track is there. This does not occur always but after I’ve been working on a project for some time. Any ideas? I’m using Audacity 2.0.5 with JAWS 15 on Windows 8. Thanks.
