Re: [orca-list] Orca speaks extra dot character



Indeed Joanie, it's a synthesizer issue.

Be really careful, when following the below procedure, if you break speech-dispatcher, you won't be able to have speech anymore.

We could work-around the issue with this:

Best regards.

Hi Jeremy.

Orca does currently use a period to cause a pause to be inserted. Changing that is something I plan to do in my copious spare time (tm). :)

That said, speech synthesizers should respect your punctuation. At the punctuation level of "some" the final period should not be spoken.

As an experiment I did the following, without Orca running, in a terminal:

spd-say -m some "autogen.sh."
spd-say -m all "autogen.sh."

For the first command I heard "autogen dot sh". For the second command I heard "autogen dot sh dot". These are the expected results in both cases.

Do you get the same results? If not, that sounds to me like it might be either a bug in the speech synthesizer or something which might need to be tweaked in speech-dispatcher.

I have vague recollections of there being some potentially related changes in speech-dispatcher, so hoping Samuel might have an idea.

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

This morning, I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and noticed an odd issue. Whenever I land on a file name with an extension in nautilus, an extra dot is spoken after the extension.

For example, if I browse my local clone of Orca master, and land on autogen.sh, what I hear is "autogen dot sh dot."

This seams to only happen with file names, and not directories. My punctuation level is set to some. When using flat review, I don't see the extra dot.

Here is a debug file showing the issue.

I *think* that the problem starts on the line that reads:
16:32:00.728231 - SPEECH OUTPUT: 'autogen.sh.' voice=hyperlink{'established': False}


Thanks,

Jeremy
