Hello,
Firefox alert appear to be focusable and when counting the tab
order they usually follow right after the address bar. So when I
am expecting an alert I am pressing alt+d to go to the address bar
and then pressing tab key from there in order to land on the
alert. This include Remember password alert, web visum alert,
install addon alert, popup window blocked alert, allow access to
your Camera / microphone alert and more of this kind.
Greetings

FWIW, Hello Firefox and friends aren't even easily accessible
under NVDA (I repeatedly mention NVDA since IIRC they received
funding directly from Mozilla so I'd think they were the gold
standard in screen reader/Firefox combos, and would expect that if
something wasn't a Firefox issue then it'd work under NVDA.)
Toolbar focus is almost certainly a Firefox issue that Mozilla
should resolve on both Linux and Windows.
Unfortunately, my current Orca master/Firefox 43 combination isn't
reading most alerts. I'm building a web app with ARIA alerts, and
these do appear to be read. It uses web RTC, and the Share Camera
alert does appear to be focusable. But every attempt I've made to
install addons just results in silence, and I can never tab to the
alert that gives Firefox permission to install them.
I've also noticed in the web RTC camera share dialog that the
audio/video submenus that allow for selecting between camera and
audio sources aren't presented as popup buttons. I suspect that's
probably an upstream Gecko issue.

Howdy,
I think Orca usually reads these alerts when they pop up,
however, there is no way I know of to actually focus them. It
would be nice to have a way to get to them, and also to "Hello
Firefox".
Thanks

Something else I'm having a hard time
with under Orca master and Firefox 43.0./3.
I can't reach the various alert bars that appear at the tops
of pages. At the moment I have 2, one asking if I'd like to
enable search suggestions and another prompting me to install
an addon. These aren't in the tab order, nor can they be
reached with f6/ctrl-f6/alt-f6. I also can't route the mouse
to them and simulate clicks on the various affirmative
actions.
Is there some other trick to accessing these? Under
Windows/NVDA they weren't always apparent but they almost
always appeared in the tab order. Further, they were always
read when they appeared, and now I'm only noticing them using
flat review. I use Passifox to interface with Keepass, for
instance, and if my Keepass process ever crashed I'd
immediately hear an alert that the Keepass connection was lost
right when it happened. But under Linux these alerts just sit
there unspoken. Is there an upstream Gecko bug tracking this
that I can follow, assuming the problem is upstream?
Thanks.
