Re: [orca-list] A Newbie Problem

Try to do this
Open preferences screen using insert+spacebar
Navigate to the key echo tab, and disable the key echo
Navigate to the accept button and check if the dialog closes.
Then, open again the dialog, go to key echo tab, and enable it again, and finally go to the voice settings 
tab and adjust the voice rate, then press accept button, and it should work.
