Dear Maintainer,

Currently i have only braille support in the login screen. I can read my username and password: etc. in braille but nothing is spoken. Speech just starts after i've logged in.

Hi Jann,

So orca is running (giving you braille support) but it doesn't speak? If so,
can't you enable speech in orca's preferences?

Regards,
Emilio

Hmm, after i've logged in speech is enabled in orca. Only the login
screen is affected.
Is there an option to switch speech on or off for the login seperatly?

Yes, your user session and the gdm session don't share the same settings, so you
need to enable speech in the gdm session. You can do so from the accessibility
menu in the top right corner, "Enable Screen Reader" option, assuming you're
using gdm3 3.4.1-8.

Hi,

https://wiki.debian.org/accessibility#gdm_accessibility reads:

  "Then, you can enable orca with either of four ways:
  * It is enabled automatically when accessibility features were
    enabled to access the Debian Installer
  * [...]"

So I'm wondering at what point we've lost this feature.

That page also says "Starting from Jessie, it can be enabled by typing
the menu-alt-s shortcut". I confirm this works fine both in my GNOME
Shell session on sid, and in GDM. This is good, but not as good as the
previous automatic behavior it seems we've used to have.

Cheers,

Please note that this is an old bug report, and the bug does not mention
whether the installation was done with braille or speech being used.  I
have made sure that it was working within the past few weeks, so I don't
think we have lost the feature.

Hello again,

When lightdm starts at boot, I have both braille and speech output.
However, when logging out, and the login screen re-appears, I only get braille output.

I cannot reproduce, but I suspect a speech-dispatcher problem. You could
try something like su lightdm -c speech-dispatcher as root, after you
kill all speech-dispatcher sessions.

You could find a script written by Colomben WENDLING (b4n) that figures
out this issue here :
http://git.hypra.fr/hypra/mate-accessibility/blob/master/etc/X11/Xsession.d/01speech-dispatcher-pulseaudio-cleanup-with-session
Copy the file content into the file
"/etc/X11/Xsession.d/01speech-dispatcher-pulseaudio-cleanup-with-session"

@Samuel: Do you think we could propose it into jessie update to solve
the issue for all ?

Best regards.
