The Text to Speech on my K3 will not cut off. When I go to turn it off, the turn off option is not available, only turn on speech. So I turn it on, then go back and the turn off and pause options are available. I turn the TTS off and it stops, but every time I bring the Kindle out of sleep mode the text to speech is on again. It will stop reading on its's own after a few paragraphs, but starts up again after coming out of sleep mode. I tried turning the Kindle off for several minutes but this did not fix the problem. Any one else having this problem or have a suggestion?

Have you done a Restart? (Home, Menu, Settings, Menu, Restart) NOT RESET to factory defaults!
This will usually fix most odd things that are going on with the Kindle, just like your computer, once in a while it needs to reboot.
However, if this doesn't help, I would call customer service.

Don't keep us in suspense, did it help or is it still doing a filibuster?
best wishes,
