Re: [orca-list] Strange voice interaction with thunderbird and echo by word...???

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

Well, same thing's happening now with latest arch package of the tor-browser, 4.0 I think it is, us9ing mate 
desktop/not tried any other GUI yet., 
The system voice is again using my alt voice that is only configured to work with the caja filemanager at the 
moment. 
I'll report more as I discover more. So far I don't think this has happened with stock firefox.
