Actually, I had my friend put on earphones and it talked. I had her turn the 
volume all the way up and pull out the headphones but there was still no sound. 
So i had her do it again - turn volume up with earphones and then without 
earphones - and then volume came back all the way up. So this appears to be a 
volume problem instead of a voiceover problem. I've seen this before with the 
iPhone but hadn't seen it with the Mac. Anyway, using earphones to bring volume 
back up is a temporary fix but we don't know why the volume is going down in 
the first place. We'll have to see if it does it again now that the volume is 
back up.
