[orca-list] Fw: Orca On The Raspberry PI 4



Pranav,
Following your steps gave me nothing different from what I had before.
I have installed everything and spd-say hello works, but no audio in the GUI.
I tried to adduser root audio, but that did not help.
I have an audio file in /boot and it plays okay.
I've tried F2 and entering orca and I did ctrl + alt + T and tried orca incase I was successful getting into the terminal, and I did spd-say hello then too, and no audio.
I suspect that in the GUI it starts sending audio to the HDMI.
I don't have that small of an HDMI cord, so it has never detected any HDMI connection.
Anyone know of anything else to try?
This is a fully Raspbian Buster.
I did an update, but not yet an upgrade, as I did that originally on my first attempt and it did not have audio in the GUI either.
Glenn

I forgot one crucial step.

After installing speech-dispatcher, install orca with

Sudo apt install gnome-orca

Hi all,

 

I have orca working on Raspbian buster on a  raspberry pi 3B. I suspect the same steps will work on a raspberry pi 4. Glen, in your case, please start with a fresh image. Do remember to put a blank file called ssh in the fat partition so that you have ssh enabled in the pi.

Step 1

Login as the user pi  via ssh

Run the following command

Sudo raspi-config

Step 2:

Go to option 7 and ensure that you set your audio out to head phones or hdmi, whichever works for you. Glen, if you have plugged in a speaker into the headphone jack then choose headphone.

Step 3:

Exit raspi-config

Step 4:

Run the following commands

Sudo apt install speech-dispatcher -y

Once the command finishes running, then run the  below command

Amixer set Headphone 100%

Now run

Spd-say “hello”

If you hear hello, go to the next step.

Step 5:

Go back into raspi-config and this time choose option 3. Elect to boot directly into the gui.

Step 6:

Reboot the pi and wait. At this point, ensure you have an external keyboard connected.

Hit alt+windows+s and you should hear orca talking.

 

Pranav
