I want to control my Ubuntu 13.04 server using Orca through VNC.  I'm able to port-forward speech-hub from my Windows laptop to port 6560 on the Ubuntu server, and Orca talks to it just fine.  The only problem I'm having is that the caps-lock key and insert key do not seem to get passed to the vino-server that Ubuntu runs by default if you share your desktop.  I'm able to use keyboard navigation to listen to text, but I can't issue any Orca commands that require the Orca key.

Is there any known solution for this?  I think it would be awesome to be able to control a remote Orca desktop over VNC or something similar.

Thanks,

Bill
