HI
iN GNOME, YOU SIMPLY PRESS WINDOWS KEY TO OPEN UP THE DASH, AD START
TYPING SOUND. pRESS ENTER ON THE SOUND ITEM, ANd you'll start out on
the output tab, Press control+pageup and control+pagedown to go
through the tabs until you get to applications. There is a bug where
the applications themselves are not always spoken with orca, just
shift tab over them and orca should pick them up. Apparently this is a
known bug and is fixed in gnome 3.15, which will become gnome 3.16 in
march
Thanks
Kendell clark
