Unable to turn off the Orca screen reader on login screen, tried editing the .desktop file from etc and disabling it from settings, but it wakes up every time on login screen. Text pronounced are "Turning screen reader off, turning screen reader on ..." and it goes on.
Please fix this, for now i am uninstalling the application. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-orca in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1165609 Title: There is no apparent way to stop Orca Status in OEM Priority Project: Invalid Status in gnome-orca package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The "Orca Screen Reader" icon in the Dash is a trap. If a user accidentally opens it, the only apparent recourse for the incessant jabber is to either mute the volume system-wide or log out. This makes for a very poor user experience. Orca could avoid this situation by providing at least one of the following: 1) A notification of how to stop it, if there is a way to stop it. 2) A confirmation prompt prior to starting. 3) A quit option in a standard location such as the indicator menu.
