Hi All,

I have searched for an answer to this, but I am not coming up with much. I have a Dell XPS laptop, am using JAWS 2020 and Windows 10, and I just purchased a Jabra Evolve 65 Bluetooth headset. It paired really easily, and the sound was great. Then, I started a zoom meeting, and I had no JAWS speech at all. Any ideas about how I might solve this issue?

Many thanks,

Cynthia

Hi,

 Try opening the :Utilities” menu. Scroll down to “Sound Card”.  This has a sub menu.  Check to see what JAWS is using.  You may need to select your Blu Tooth or “default” sound card settings.

Dan,

Is there a way to do this if you cannot hear JAWS talking?  Only idea I have it to get sighted assistance.  Had an issue recently where JAWS would go silent when I plugged in wired earbuds. An AIRA agent helped me see that my earbuds had gotten muted when I plugged in the earbuds.  But.  I had not been able to figure out how to check the settings independently, because the only settings I could see when the earbuds were not plugged in were for my onboard speakers
