Assuming that you don't have any problems related to your upgrade, what
you describe suggests that Orca cannot identify you are in Pidgin.

I have vague recollections of Mike Gorse having a similar problem in his
SUSE environment and I *think* the problem was related to his having
multiple Orcas in his environment.

Orca 3.6.3 and Pidgin work as expected for me.

Take care.
