Check the Notification Log. It shows the notifications that VN received and any reasons (in red text) why VN didn't speak them.
I'm not sure what you mean by "announcing links by voice". Are links outside of notifications being spoken? VN will only speak status bar notifications and, on Android 3.0+, toasts. Anything else must be speaking through a different app. If it doesn't appear in the Notification Log, VN isn't speaking it.
I suspect the reason SBB Mobile notifications weren't spoken could be because the notification had no message content and VN currently doesn't speak empty notifications (what would it say?). The Notification Log will indicate if this is the case.
Sure i forgot, i'm using Android 4.1.2. Re-reading my bug report, i must admit, it's not very clear either..!
I had time to test and fiddle around some more and t think i finally found the reason for the talkling apps. In accessibility, there is a option in German it's called "Web-Bedienung verbessern"(improve web accessibility). It's at the very bottom of the list on my device. I don't know whether this option was added with the recent update of talkback, but i can't remember to have this set manually. Deactivating it makes every app silent. Seems like this option activates voice as soon as any assistive technology is active..! For the non-talking SBB-Mobile app, i have to wait until another of the trains i regulary use is late.. :) But if i see "empty message", i'll talk to the developper of this app. Thanks!
I'm glad you figured it out. Good to know about the web accessibility option. I haven't experienced any problems with it automatically enabling. Now I know it's an option to be aware of for future issue reports. Thanks!
Some apps for (example "ZDF Mediathek") start to behave like Talkback would be activatet (announcing links by voice etc.) Some other apps show notification that are not announced by voicenotify. (for example "SBB Mobile") Tested on an xperia Z. I've only activated VoiceNotify in the accesibility settings,NOT TalkBack.
