Hello,
I have uploaded at-spi2-core/2.56.2-1+deb13u1 for inclusion in Trixie
[ Reason ]
This fixes bug #1111485 which was introduced in debian 12 or 13 I guess
[ Impact ]
Blind users which use several keyboard groups (typically for a non-latin
language), when they type with the non-default group, actually here from
the screen reader the feedback as if the default group was selected. If
the native language of the user is not the default group, this makes it
extremely inconvenient to work.
[ Tests ]
Manual test was performed.
[ Risks ]
The code is very trivial.
[ Checklist ]
[X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
(Explain *all* the changes)
[ Other info ]
The change simply reports the selected group in the keyboard events sent
to the screen reader.

+ AtspiDeviceX11: Encode group in the key event before passing to
XLookupString
+
+ We receive key events via XInput and convert the XInput events to
+ XKeyEvents before passing them to XLookupString. When doing this, we need
to
+ check the active xkb group and pass it in the upper bits of the state.
+ Otherwise, we will always receive the keysym from the first group,
regardless
+ of which group is active, causing the wrong keysym to be returned when a
+ non-default keyboard layout is active.
+
+ Closes #201
