Hello Richard, Could this be NVDA mouse support complimenting audiotac?

I just tested it on the computer in my office, which is a rather old Dell machine running XP and I don't see that effect. The audio output is really good regardless of whether NVDA is or is not running. Dick Baldwin On Mon, Nov 7, 2011 at 4:30 PM, Amanda Lacy <lacy925@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: I'm surprised. When I use that program with NVDA I have to "shut the talker off," otherwise it keeps talking and I can't hear the sounds produced by the mouse.

Essentially, it uses a mouseMove listener and emits a pulse each time an event of that type is fired. The audio results are OK, but not great. However, when I start NVDA and have it running, the audio results are great. The output stream of audio pulses becomes very uniform, whereas without NVDA running, the output stream of audio pulses is not uniform at all. Something about having NVDA running is causing the Java program to perform much better, which is exactly the reverse of what I have come to expect during many years of computer programming. I am running Vista Home Premium on a 64-bit HP Laptop, but this Java program is compiled using the 32-bit javac. Any ideas as to what might be going on? Dick Baldwin -- Richard G.
