Ok,  just using reaper 5.16 right now.  I'll get an update.
But yes, it speaks when the control gains focus, just not when you use the 
arrow keys.
The value does change.  And, the static box next door updates just fine, so 
I can fix this for older reapers.  Now, just to make sure I dont' double 
speak for newer ones.
