Hi there,
Simple as that,
Playroom do not work with jaws 16.
We have no speach output.
I suspect that freedom scientific changed something in jfwapi.dll, or, somewhere else.
Could you, please, look and do something?

at the moment it is a beta version so you should contact them and report the problem.

You are partialy right, but I think that it will stay as it now.
Because they probably changed something in jfwapi system. FS is not known as company addressing and solving user problems so often and quick

This problem has already reported to freedom scientifics anyway. They changed a slight thing which broke UniversalSpeech.

Could you try the following and tell me how it goes ?

1. Download https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25797488/UniversalSpeech.zip
2. Copy UniversalSpeech.dll from the archive to the playroom's folder in Program Files (replace the existing file); you don't need the rest of the archive.
3. Restart the playroom

Make sure to create a backup of the old UniversalSpeech.dll before replacing it . . . just in case.

I tried it, and its work, but I done one step more.
I had to change in options, speach
output from Auto to JAWS, and it work.
If I restore to auto, it wont work.
Now working I set JAWS as primary screen reader.

Try again with the UniversalSpeech.dll from this archive
