Thanks for all the suggestions. However, I figured out the solution (at least as far as the Emvoice vocal VST is concerned). Within the Emvoice GUI, there is a small button at the top right of the screen that looks like a small computer keyboard. if you hover your mouse over it, it says "give all keystrokes to plugin". This functions as a toggle so you can either enable or disable the feature. I can only guess that I inadvertently must have disabled it at some point. Enabling this solved my problem, and lyrics are now correctly entered into the plugin and do not trigger Cakewalk keyboard shortcuts.

I have used Emvoice with Calkewalk by Bandlab for some years without problem. Today when I tried to enter some lyrics into Emvoice, it will accept some letters but not all. Instead of the letter being inserted into the lyric box, hitting the key triggers a Cakewalk computer keyboard shortcut. For example, attempting to enter the letter "b" into the Emvoice lyric box triggers the Cakewalk browser to appear. Entering the letter "o" works correctly and is inserted into the lyric box. After some experimenting it seems that any letter that happens to be a Cakewalk assigned keyboard shortcut triggers the shortcut instead of inserting the letter into Emvoice. Unassigned letters are inserted into Emvoice without problem. I am not sure if this is a Cakewalk bug or an Emvoice bug (I submitted a ticket to their support line) but thought I would see if anyone else is seeing this issue. I am using the latest versions of both Cakewalk and Emvoice on Windows 11 pro.
