[Bug 1231091] Re: Screenreader starts, but does not work with installer (ubiquity) in live session

[Heather Ellsworth]

I can reproduce this problem (exactly what is described in comment #10)
with the 20210324 daily build of Ubuntu MATE. The problem *does not*
exist in the 20210324 daily build of regular Ubuntu.

The only difference I see here is that when you start an install and
you're presented with the Install screen, the regular Ubuntu says
"Install" and the Ubuntu MATE one says "Install (as superuser)".

So why does the MATE installer use superuser privs and is this
absolutely necessary?

Title:
  Screenreader starts, but does not work with installer (ubiquity) in
  live session

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Image: 20130925

  I started the image and let it boot to the gui selector for live
  session or install only. When the drum sound played, I pressed ctrl-s
  to start the screen reader and heard the familiar "screenreader on"
  sound, and it read the options to me.  From there, I started the live
  session, and went into the installer, but orca would not read any of
  the screens.  I also started a terminal window and noticed that it
  says "window" when I move the mouse over the unity launcher icon, and
  "unity dash" when I click on it, but nothing in the terminal is read
  to me either.  So I don't think this is limited to just ubiquity.
