Yeah, I do support for both debian and ubuntu in my job. But I run 
debian on my desktop. I've found it has fewer accessibility glitches 
than ubuntu. I don't have time to become a speakup and/or orca expert 
and I've found debian works better. One advantage in ubuntu is that my 
hardware speech synth, a doubletalk, works in the character console. 
That has bailed me out a few times.
