Hitting ok in the preferences is the same as using alt+f2 and typing orca.
There is no point using the preferences to do this, pressing alt f2 and 
typing orca is far quicker.
Also this may be hard to do, since when orca is killed I assume its code 
isn't ran anymore.
So how would you start it again?
Unless we have some auto-brltty-detection or something in orca so when 
brltty starts orca picks it up and starts braille.
I guess with my last comment about the orca code, the orca preferences can 
do this, so yes, you probably could have a hotkey to do this I guess.

But really, why not get brltty to start at boot time or start it before 
you use orca?
And is having to restart orca once or twice a big problem.
