[orca-list] gnome-orca: Conflict between orca and pavucontrol

[Samuel Thibault <samuel thibault ens-lyon org>]

Hello,

We have received the bug quoted below in Debian, and also recorded on
http://bugs.debian.org/696967

Maybe the nest would be for Martin to discuss directly with the Orca
maintainers?

When the program "pavucontrol" is started on a machine where orca is enabled as a screen reader, orca becomes 
very slow, and the speech goes silent.
The GUI session may even crash or lock up, and the only solution is to restart gdm3.

Here is the relevant info from ".xsession-errors":
