@andrew-l-d I cannot reproduce this. What is your eSpeak pitch set to? Also how you've set 'Capital pitch change percentage' in the settings panel?
I can't reproduce it in Windows 10/11 either, what language/voice variant are you using?
Thanks both for the feedback. The one setting I did not check! Pitch change for capitals is set at 30 and because eSpeak ignores it I left it there. But I dropped the eSpeak pitch to 0 and that is what caused the problem. I will therefore close the issue.
@andrew-l-d Why do you say that ESpeak ignores the caps pitch setting? Or have I misunderstood you? It does not ignore it on my system.
Luke, you are correct. With pitch change set to 50 it is obvious. When set to 30 with the Male 7 variant set to pitch 20 and with my aging ears it is not obvious.
Andrew
Ah okay. :)
Steps to reproduce:

If navigating to a word with - say - ctrl+right arrow NVDA speaks the word correctly. If using left arrow to go to the uppercase letter, the error sound occurs.Similarly, if navigating to a word with right arrow the error sound occurs. Note that the issue only occurs with the eSpeak synthetizer. The issue occurs regardless of which option for presenting uppercase characters is selected.
Expected behavior:
When navigating to an uppercase character with right or left arrow keys, the character will be presented correctly.
