Control key does not stop NVDA speech at first press

CyrilleB79 commented 4 years ago

Steps to reproduce:

Open Outlook
Press control+shift+B to open address book
assuming you have a lot of names in your address book or exchange address book, type a string that will give many results, e.g. 'John'
Press the 'OK' button and tab to the result list The result list may be as follow:
```
KENNEDY John
LENNON John```
```
Type 'L' to move the selection on the 'LENNON John' row
While the 'LENNON John' row is read, press 'control' key to stop the speech

Actual behavior:

The whole row is read once again after 'control' has been pressed. A second 'control' keystroke is needed to stop the speech.

Expected behavior:

'control' key should just interrupt the speech at first press.

Additional note

Same issue with the 'shift' keystroke instead of 'control'. First press reads the row again and second press finally pauses the speech.

Hmm, I've seen this on areas where it used to repeat lines, and suspect some code was written to stop it repeating but if you cancel speech the second version just suppressed is being seen and spoken somehow. At least that is what it looks like. Weird. Brian

@CyrilleB79 are you still having this issue with NVDA 2024.2 Beta?

CyrilleB79 commented 4 months ago

Not tested on NVDA 2024.2beta. But I have tested this still recently with NVDA 2024.1 and the issue was still present.

First investigation with Event Tracker showed that a double speech was occurring due to two distinct events.
