Re: [orca-list] no audio output on menus in ubuntu 12.04 beta1

[Thomas Ward <thomasward1978 gmail com>]

Hi Bart,

Yes, I've seen this behavior too. I installed beta 1 just a couple
days ago, and the latest updates from Software Center seems to have
restored functionality to menus, but with the underscore issue you
reported. Like you I didn't know if it was my machine or a Ubuntu 12
issue as I really haven't had much time the last couple of days to
test beta 1 for bugs and issues.
