Re: [orca-list] firefox and audio playback in linux?

What firefox can't do can be done by a seamonkey.  Though I probably
need to adjust some preferences on it so security updates don't keep
poppng up in the middle of my survey.
Apparently seamonkey doesn't require pulseaudio to be running to play
audio!

Here's a little info that may help.  The language in chromium is barely
english with germanic accents you would not believe listening to it.
That's a separate issue though for what I can tell you.  I did the
demographics on that url I sent to the list earlier and this time I got
a video control I hit enter on and the video played and I was able to
hear the audio fine.  I didn't get out of the video though in any normal
fashion though.  It could be alt-n will work since a next button is
supposed to be on that page but each video clip is embedded in a panel.
Chromium didn't tell me about the panel but firefox did.

Public Service Announcement: Chromium and Orca are still a work in
progress and many things don't quite work yet. These are all known
issues. Official support won't be in place until the GNOME 3.34 release.
At that time we'll put out a call for testing.

Hello Jude,

I just tried  on Slint.

Orca begins to read the page.

At the end, just press Tab then Enter and
you hear the second page.
At the boot there are two sentences , you should chose one of them
I agree to the above and wish to participate tp this study
I do not agree to the above and do not wish to participate to this study
Too select the one just spoken press space: it says "selected"
Press Tab then Enter to go to the next page, ans so on.

You can use the Tab keys as well as the up and down to navigate.

I don't understand what you mean with these sound clips, I jsut see
simple pages with a text and  a form with select-able choices

I don't think there be any issue with firefox and pulsaudio,

I reproduce below the text displayed on the two first pages.

Best,

Didier

Apparently the problem here is firefox pulseaudio dependency.  It's
about time to install chromium and see if that will work.

I got onto a survey page with sound clips and with orca and firefox in use
the buttons to make these clips play appear inaccessible.  Each of these
buttons is inside a panel.  I hit enter on the panel and that seemed to
open the panel and couldn't find anything clickable like I was supposed to
be able to find.
https://cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1XnLRnabmgmiQ8R

is the url if anyone has the time to try this one out.  I have no add-ons
on this version of firefox yet so if firefox needs one or more of these
I'd like to know.
