I too wasted a week of my finite life chasing after this.  I know of no
other operating system in widespread usage that comes configured by
default like this.  I'm already not very happy with Ubuntu over Unity,
this does not help my opinion of the distribution.  I'm also trying to
convince other amateur operators to use Linux and this issue is a real
stumbling block.  With issues like this, is it any wonder most of them
are using some variant of Windows?

I think a worthwhile compromise would be a sub-distribution of Ubuntu
aimed specifically at the sightless accompanied with an easy-to-follow
document on how to make mainstream Ubuntu usable for the sightless.
