What? Am I missing something? I use Orca with SD under Gutsy and Orca 
2.22.0, and I hear a rising pitch when I type a capital letter. Any idea 
why Orca/SD behaves that different?
And BTW: I prefer the announcement of a capital letter instead of a 
pitch, since the German word for "capital" just has one syllable.
Very astonishing!
