Hi ddl,
You're right, the second confirmation wasn't working in your scene. This is because Vox has trouble with multiple confirm commands strung together. Although there's a technical workaround if it's absolutely necessary, there's no need to have multiple confirm commands in your particular scene.
Instead, you can use your scripted response to the previous command as the command phrase that triggers the next command (in this case, Acknowledgement One). Then the only command you're confirming is the last one -- Program One.
Apart from that, we just did some minor clean-up of actions and more importantly, divided your commands into two groups. Try them out, see what you think.

As James has said before, VC was not initially conceived as a conversational AI bot, but really as a way to replace manual control with voice control. So while it's great for a single back and forth exchange, implementing entire conversational threads can definitely get tricksy.
