In nvaccess/nvda#11428 (comment),
Andre9642 reported a Conhost crash when switching to/from the alt buffer
a few times with a Braille display connected. Upon further
investigation, @carlos-zamora and I discovered that the FailFast was in
GetText: more checks similar to #7677 were needed for this case.

Tested with NVDA using a Focus Braille display.
