  If it's an AC menu, no - speech-related input is handled before menus in the AC update loop.

  If it's a Unity UI menu: I'm not sure when UI Buttons receive input relative to other components, but AC's update loop comes from the StateHandler script. It might be worth trying to increase that script's Script Execution Order to see if that causes UI Buttons to be updated before it.

  The alternative approach, which should work with both menu styles, would be to uncheck Skip with mouse clicks?, and instead rely on the SkipSpeech input, map it to a mouse click, and then override the input check through script:

  using UnityEngine;
  using AC;
  
  public class SkipSpeechExample : MonoBehaviour
  {
  
      void Start ()
      {
          KickStarter.playerInput.InputGetButtonDownDelegate = CustomGetButtonDown;
      }
  
      private bool CustomGetButtonDown (string buttonName)
      {
          if (buttonName == "SkipSpeech")
          {
              Vector2 invertedMouse = KickStarter.playerInput.GetInvertedMouse ();
              if (PlayerMenus.GetMenuWithName ("MyMenu").IsPointInside (invertedMouse))
              {
                  // Mouse over "MyMenu", ignore input
                  return false;
              }
              return Input.GetButtonDown (buttonName);
          }
  
          try
          {
              return Input.GetButtonDown (buttonName);
          }
          catch {}
  
          return false;
      }
  
  }
