Re: [orca-list] Gnome 3.34.0 - Orca reads all events and can not be stopped

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Based on everything you've told me, it sounds like there is a regression 
somewhere causing Orca to no longer be notified of the keys you press. 
Orca's interruption of speech works by Orca being told you pressed a key 
and stopping speech. Orca commands work by Orca being told you pressed a 
key (or key combination) which corresponds to an Orca command. Orca's 
key echo (mentioned by José) works by Orca being told you pressed a key 
and -- assuming you have key echo enabled -- speaking the key you 
pressed. In other words, Orca depends 100% on knowing what keys you pressed.
