Re: Orca Incoming messages in Gaim not being read/displayed

["Cody" <churst31 verizon net>]

 hi Joany

 This was me who brought this up. I was running fc5. Orca did not read 
messages on one machine but did on another so go figure. but I did notice 
though what Mike said, sounds will mess with orca's speech output so turning 
them off will most likely work. I did have a few occasions that orca totally 
took over the gaim sounds and read incoming messages, but this was only if I 
was lucky...so, do that and see if that works.
