You will be interested in this thread:

I will summarize:

Recent changes in Gtk+ and gnome-settings-daemon broke accessibility
for non-Gtk+ apps that use Gtk+ (this includes Firefox, OpenOffice,
and others).  Basically openSUSE, being brand new, used a brand new
version of Gtk that requires some accessibility fixes for
applicaitons that use Gtk.   The Fixes are currently being worked on.

Here is the specific Firefox bug:
