Do you try use some different voice like GB or something else if this will work?
Maybe problem is only with voice that you use now.

Installed maps now it is working without sound (turn by turn sounds)
I have sounds like "calculating" and "lost satellite reception"
When I input where I want to go it doesn't say anything...
I used pedestrian mode and returned to automobile and it started working.
After it was shut down and restarted there is no sound again.
It doesn't show little balloon with distance to next turn.
When I go to GPS simulation it goes OK. Voice follows turns and shows OK.
What do I need to do ?

Please do a hard reset and after play with Nuvi outside for 20 minutes to get a good satellite fix.
I've had the same problem and always fix it with hard reset !
Maybe you have 2 maps of the same region active !
