I'm using a Sapi4 synth by default, but observed similar strange behavior with NVDA Vocalizer. Since next snapshot 9437,ae6ecf6 which came out today, speech interrupts itself in very strange ways when changing windows. For example, when alt-tabbing to Mozilla Firefox and releasing the tab key, normally the title bar is read, than the document name, which looks like this in the log:

IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (16:30:33):

Input: kb(laptop):alt+tab

IO - speech.speak (16:30:33):

Speaking Ticket \u2013 NVDA Community - Mozilla Firefox icon 1 of 2'

IO - speech.speak (16:30:34):

Speaking Ticket \u2013 NVDA Community - Mozilla Firefox icon 1 of 2'

IO - speech.speak (16:30:34):

Speaking Ticket \u2013 NVDA Community - Mozilla Firefox'

IO - speech.speak (16:30:34):

Speaking Ticket \u2013 NVDA Community document'

In the mentioned snapshot, when alt-tabbing to firefox, speech starts reading the window title but very quickly interrupts itself and reads the document name. The log shows this strange behavior:

IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (16:34:24):

Input: kb(laptop):alt+tab

This behavior is quite annoying and probably due to the changes made before the release of the last snapshot.
