Answer to Question

Chika asks:
1. The sound matters reading discusses how a voice can help a reader focus on words. Does that take away from the meaning of the words and add more emphasis on sound or vice versa?

I think that voice when paired with words only adds another layer if it identically correlates with the words. It can add the dimension of emphasis and emotion that ink on paper or pixels on a screen cannot provide. However, if the voice is talking about something different than the words (i.e. movie scene where a letter is shown but the characters are talking about something else). This distracts the viewer/listener and doesn't add but substracts.
