The python3 binding issue brings the "unprintable" part, but most
probably not the error which triggered it.

Does the user which runs orca have access to /etc/brlapi.key?

Is the /etc/brlapi.key file not empty?

Is the brltty daemon running?

  [Quantal and Raring] Brltty native braille support doesn't work with
  Orca

Status in “brltty” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Dear Developers,

  In Ubuntu Quantal and Ubuntu Raring if I enabling Orca with braille support, the Orca's debug.out file I see following traceback error message:
  BrlTTY seems to have disappeared:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/orca/braille.py", line 1720, in _brlAPIKeyReader
      key = _brlAPI.readKey(False)
    File "brlapi.pyx", line 535, in brlapi.Connection.readKey (brlapi.auto.c:6558)
  brlapi.OperationError: <unprintable OperationError object>

  If I remember right an oldest I opened thread with Brltty mailing
  list, this problem related the Python3 Brltty bindings.

  I attaching the Orca debug.out file.

  Attila
