Public bug reported:
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.
