FAQ2 cont: GitHub issues:
* Braille is not reporting Excel cell column headers: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/6901
* Reporting column headers before content in speech: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/4629
The first issue is a bit geeky as it discusses some technical background. As this is an implementation discussion for NVDA, HumanWare may not be the right entity to resolve this (this is a cross-device problem, not unique to BNE). 5/

FAQ 3: can you turn off speech on the BNE? Yes in two ways: one temporary, one permanent. * Temporary: NVDA let you cycle between four speech output modes: talk, beep, on-demand (similar to speech on request mode), and off. It is also possible to exclude certain speech output modes. * Permanent: NVDA does have a "no speech" speech synthesizer option. 6/
