I'm running Orca from Git (updated a week or two ago) with BRLTTY 5.4, and I
am not experiencing this problem. I start at the shell prompt at a console,
run startx to load GNOME, and braille is displayed normally after Orca begins
running.

Can you be more specific about the circumstances in which this problem occurs?
