Say all profile gets triggered even when there is no text to read

[burakyuksek]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Make a say all profile
2. Go to the desktop by pressing windows+m
3. Press the say all command

Actual behavior:

nvda-old.log
Say all profile gets triggered, with no way of disabling other than quitting NVDA.

Expected behavior:

Say all profile doesn't get triggered, since there is no text to speak

Maybe linked with #9947?

Can you expand on the problem this causes? Would it be adequate to ensure that the say all profile is disabled once it is determined that there is no speech?

Hello,
So my configuration with the current synthesizer I'm using is rate 85 pitch 60. I cannot understand long text with those settings so I made a say all profile which sets the pitch and rate to 65. Being stuck with this profile means being stuck with those settings until next restart, or if I try changing the settings the say all profile is edited instead of default profile.
I think disabling say all profile would be enough.

It have already happened to me... Now, I can't reproduce... I think I have cleaned something wrong in the profiles files...

Hello,

to me it happens everywhere there is no text to read like taskbar, buttons etc. and when it happens, it does not automatically switch to default profile.

str:

in case when say all profile has been already created:

• go to taskbar
• press say all (NVDA+downArrow)

Did you try to run the COM registry fixing tool in NVDA menu / tools?
No

N/A

my work around to restore default behaveour in this case:

• open configuuration profile
• go to default profile
• disable all triggers
• press enter to close a configuration profiles dialog
• reopen a configuration profiles dialog
• reenable all triggers (clear checkbox there)
• close the dialog

thanks.
