[Emacspeak] Confused by the speech output I get from Emacs / Emacspeak when using shell

Hello.
I am on Mac OS running Emacspeak 58.0 with Emacs 29.x.
A week or so ago, after doing who knows what to my machine, I started getting
what sounds like escape sequences in the speech output produced by Emacspeak
when using shell, (m-x shell). Prior to the incident, whatever it was, I was
able to run terminal applications inside the shell, send input and get output
with no problems. However, now I am hearing left-bracketed utterances and
only the last character of the shell prompt, e.g. “%” after issuing a
command. What’s worse though is that I am not able to successfully send any
input to a terminal application. The input gets echoed but is not parsed by
the running terminal application.
I reinstalled Emacs and Emacspeak but to no avail. I reduced my init file to
a bare minimum so that only Emacspeak loads.
I tried changing encoding input/output parsing via c-x ret, then “c”, “t” or
“p. Still no luck.
I doubt the issue is with Emacspeak, but not sure where else to look and what
I have changed to cause the behavior.

Any ideas by any chance?
Thanks so much!
Victor
