I think alt+ctrl+tab is only switching pannels when in a pannel or in 
the desktop. So if you are within the Orca main window or any other 
application window you shal go to the desktop first (e.g. by pressing 
alt+ctrl+d) and then try this alt+ctrl+tab.

You can use F10 to open the application's menubar.

Also I havefound this documentation quite handy a few moments before 
when I was introducing my-self to the enviromment Orca helps accessing.
