Hi.
The volume control is the icon just to the left of the clock on the top pannel.
Orca reads it as "icon".
You will have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list as root and uncomment
the lInes for universe.
Although you can do it in a Gnome session, it won't be easy.
The best way to edit files in /etc as root is to use the text console
and either speakup or brltty as your screen reader.
