Example URL:
any google doc

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Highlight text
2.Goto > Edit
3. Goto > speech
4. select > Start speaking
5. does not read highlighted text. Instead reads GDocs header.

What is the expected behavior?
it should read out loud the text that is highlighted.

What went wrong?
it didnot read the text out load like every other application on my mac. ONly this browser does not read text out load even after I went into preferences and selected  “Accessibility” in the top menu bar and select “Speak selection” in the “Speak” option.

Did this work before? No 

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? Both

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

This should be a right click feature. this should be easy to do. many people have disabilities (LIKE CONCUSSIONS)  that make it hard to read a computer screen.
