Re: [orca-list] No fix to this?

Hi,
OK, well, this is anyway very strange and if I cannot find a solution to this I will need to get back to 
Debian again.
Since it worked just fine when I installed arch for the first time and I can't understand why this happens 
now.
I have also added my user to some of the recommended groups like audio, optical, video and so on and that 
shouldn't be the problem, I think.
