I still believe tihs is a problem with the voice files on your zumo.

We have update several zumo 550 with CN Aus & NZ NT 2010 without
problem.

The problem you describe has been seen on nuvi 310 and nuvi 660 and
this is the problem that Garmin are working on.

Garmin deleted the voice files & re-installed. Then tried earlier
versions of voice files - none of this made any difference. The Garmin
techie did it himself under remote control - conclusion, it's not the
voice files, it's the way they are being used or indexed.
