Hi Christian,

Yes, the same issue is affecting Firefox accessibility also.

Apparently there was a change in Gtk+ and gnome-settings-daemon that
affected the accessibility of non-Gtk+ apps that use Gtk+.  So that
includes at least Open Office, Firefox, and Mono Windows Forms.  I
will let you all know when the issue is resolved, it should
hopefully be a matter of a few days at most.

Thanks,
