Hello,
Have you started orca before starting Firefox or is Firefox not accessible for you eventhough you are sure Orca and the rest of the accessibility stack is running prior to starting Firefox?
Are you also running Thunderbird? Is Thunderbird working fine for you?
If you restart Firefox is it still lacking accessibility support?
Greetings
Peter
Thanks for the help. Orca is now working everywhere but firefox. Not sure what is happening with that. Turns out something was not working in the sound system and a reboot fixed it.

Hello,
Can you access that PC remotely to trouble shoot? Does other audio such as system bell play? Can you blindly try running
espeak hello
spd-say hello
or similar to discover if speech is working fine?
If all this appears to be working are you sure orca is running?
Greetings

I am running Ubuntu 16.04 with all the latest updates. Under either mate or Ubuntu Default orca comes up and works with my braille display in some
circumstances but there is no speech. It does not work with even my braille display under firefox. The only oddity I see in syslog or other places is
the following line.

Does anyone on these lists have suggestions?
Tom
