Packet Tracer: unwarranted screen reader in Laptops/ Servers CLI

Hi community,

 

I'm using PT ver 8.1.0 on MacOS Big Sur. It's working properly -I guess-, except that when I add a laptop/ server to the view, click on said laptop, 'Desktop' tab, then 'Command Prompt', whatever command I'm running, some screen reader starts reading the result of my command.

I have checked that the macOS' own screen reader is disabled.

I made sure that 'Play Sound' within PT is UNchecked (although I believe it's not related).

That reader is not reading any other content off the screen except the results of the CMD command (or SSH as well). Including errors.

I checked PT help doc, and it doesn't show where to disable that (or if the feature is there to begin with).

 

While it's not affecting the app's functionality, it's annoying (especially if you're using the Mac's audio output to run something else/ music).

 

Let me know if I've missed any other detail. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
