Hello Dave,
as far as I can tell, firefox appears to talk to talkback and
brailleback sort of uses the same information. When I disable talkback,
brltty only shows the last focussed item in firefox. As soon as I load a
new page, brltty informs me that a geckoview had opened and if the page
is loaded, however I cannot navigate the contents of the page. As soon
as I aneble talkback and tap places on the screen, brltty echoes the
spoken output. Using gestures on screen I can navigate to next->previous
link etc, however I cannot do this using brltty.
All of this may be in part because I don't memorize all of the commands
brltty has.
I had no luck using brltty speech either. I can choose between none and
native, however no further options appear. The only thing brltty has
said to me so far is it's versionnumber.
I am using 5.1 b.t.w.
With kind regards,
Henk.

as far as I know, firefox makes no use of the Android web view
component, so chromevox is not enabled when firefox browses a web
page. Firefox works very well with talkback and reasonably well with
brailleback. If I remember correctly, Firefox handles it's own
accessibility, only using brailleback/talkback as a system to send
messages to the user.
Then I'm surprised to hear that it isn't working with brltty. Can you verify
this?
