Bug ID: 493054
Summary: Xwayland startup doesn't include AT-SPI information
for Orca to see Xwayland applications
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.4
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: xwayland
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In Plasma Wayland, X11 applications seem to be somewhat invisible to Orca. This
is because we're missing the required root X properties so that the AT-SPI bus
is discovered by X11 applications and connected to.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot up Fedora 41 Beta:
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/41_Beta-1.2/Spins/x86_64/iso/Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-41_Beta-1.2.iso
2. Launch the installer
3. Activate the screen reader
OBSERVED RESULT
Orca does not start reading the installer
EXPECTED RESULT
Orca reads the installer
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Linux 41 (KDE Plasma)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I attempted to work around this with the following startup script, but it
didn't work:
