Hello, I think I already said somewhere that I believe this problem is
in the Firefox script, since it seems to speak a character using the
`speak()' command instead of `speakCharacter()' command.  I didn't have
a chance to look at it closer lately, but due to the wide interest I had
a short look into it right now and I think I tracked the problem.  It's
a one-liner fix in Orca trunk src/orca/Gecko.py, line 8114:

       speech.speak(character, self.getACSS(obj, character), False)

should be replaced by:

       speech.speakCharacter(character, self.getACSS(obj, character))

I'll try to fill in a bug report and send the patch later today.

Best regards, Tomas
