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

Subject: RE: [orca-list] Orca On The Raspberry PI 4 I forgot one crucial
step. After installing
speech-dispatcher, install orca with Sudo apt install
gnome-orca Pranav From: Pranav Lal <pranav lal gmail com> 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 |
