Enabling NVDA in Google Docs, in Parallels on a Mac

Yeah, I have no idea whether or not this will work either. I'm trying to
avoid hauling around more devices than necessary when traveling, trying to
get more experience with NVDA. I'm a Mac guy, but do some technical work in
Parallels on occasion to avoid firing up my PC.

I'm trying to figure out how to get screen reader support enabled within
Google Docs, but the hot key combination doesn't seem to work. I'm getting
the usual audible feedback from NVDA when navigating through a doc via
directional keys.

I'm guessing it's because I'm trying to do this within Parallels on a Mac,
but I'm hoping that someone else has run into a similar issue and has
sorted it out.

cheers,
Levon
