[orca-list] orca+t (time) not speaking

[Christopher Moore <chris w1gm gmail com>]

Hello, when I am in an application such as thunderbird the time command 
acts as expected.  The problem is that it gives no spoken output when 
not in an application.

I've always assumed that orca would respond to this key press regardless 
of what what else might be going on.  From a blind person's perspective, 
if we press certain orca keys and hear nothing, the immediate response 
is that orca has either crashed or in a state where it is unable to 
process events.

So my question is whether there should be certain priority key presses 
to which orca will provide an immediate response.
