This no longer happens in 55.0.2878, however the voice that announces the spelling correction is much slower than the rate that CVox is set to. Not sure if this is supposed to be the case. Also, it would be great if typing another letter right after the correction did not interrupt the speech, as I find that as I am typing and a correction is made, I often miss the correction because I am typing too fast. An alternative would be to implement a sound to alert a user that a correction is made. Then, a user could go back and check to see what was corrected.
