NVDA becomes silent for more or less than a minute when reading bulleted, lettered, or numbered lists using paragraph reading commands arrow or arrow. This is so common in Microsoft word and especially when you put automatic bullets, numbers, or letters in a list of things. It reads these well in power point slides.
To prove this, open Microsoft word, write a list of ten things or so, then select the list, press application key, down arrow to bullets, press enter to automatically bullet the list; then start reading by pressing control+down arrow] or arrow; it remains silent for a minute. number or letter the list automatically and read using paragraph commands and you will witness the same. But if you put numbers, bullets, or letters manually and start reading by using paragraph commands, it reads well.

I can't reproduce this here with Word 2010. Even with an automatically bulleted/numbered list, control+up/downArrow responds in a fraction of a second.

What version of Microsoft Word are you using? Do you have the latest updates for it installed?
What speech synthesiser are you using? If not eSpeak, does the problem occur with eSpeak?
