Darran, very surprised to hear that JAWS 10 has this trouble. I'm still on
JAWS 7, and the iPlayer timer ticks over quite happily. JAWS doesn't announce
this, even when I switch the screen echo to "all text". But I can read it any
time with the cursor keys.
My usual setting for screen echo is highlighted text, which tells me all I need
to know in most apps.
I realize this doesn't answer your query, but I would be interested to hear if
you find a solution. Something odd must be happening if things like the
iPlayer timer are stuck unless you refresh the screen.
