Occasionally JAWS would get into a state where it would cease to speak new objects that gain focus as the user navigates through the Java application using the Tab key. Debugging report from Freedom Scientific notes that JAWS was still receiving events from the Java Access Bridge but the events being received were behind what was actually happening in the Java Swing application. For example, JAWS would receive a Focus Gained event but the event was not for the object that actually had focus, instead the event was for the object that just lost focus.
