If you are willing to investigate a bit further, then I suggest the 
following:

The way that the Orca developers usually go about trying to find out
what's happening with a particular problem, is to adjust the debug settings
in their ~/.orca/user-settings.py and saving the output into a file.
I suggest you do that for this case, open an Orca bug and attach
that file to it, and then we can give you some more specific pointers
on things to try to fix it.

In more detail:

Edit your ~/.orca/user-settings.py file and make sure that the following
three lines are uncommented (i.e. don't have a # character at the beginning
of the line):

orca.debug.debugLevel = orca.debug.LEVEL_ALL

orca.debug.eventDebugLevel = orca.debug.LEVEL_OFF

orca.debug.debugFile = open('debug.out', 'w', 0)

Stop Orca. Restart it via a virtual console, so that it'll now pickup 
your new
debug settings and write the debug output to a "debug.out" file that you
can find later.

Then run the application that's causing problems. Do all the steps that
are not responding correctly (i.e. visit the tree view in vmware in this 
case),
then terminate Orca via its normal exit (Insert/Caps-Lock-q). There will a
"debug.out" file in the directory where you started Orca from.

To file a new Orca bug please go to:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=orca

Hope that helps.

Thanks.
