[Bug 1056300] Re: orca quits reading after the welcome screen in ubiquity

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

Steps to reproduce:
1) Boot into quantal daily (either bare mental or KVM sdl with sound)
2) Wait until you hear drums
3) Press Ctrl+S to start the screen reader
4) Alt-Tab from Orca preferences window to the installer
5) Tab -> "Try ubuntu push button" Tab -> "Install ubuntu" Enter
6) "Con..." and orca goes silent.

Instead you should hear "Continue push button" and be able to tab around
and hear the labels getting announced.

If orca is launched from the terminal the following messages appear. The
text that "no longer exists" is the stuff currently displayed on the
screen and should be read back to the user....

This bug blocks fixing other orca/screen reader bugs in ubiquity &
testing a11y installation.

Title:
  orca quits reading after the welcome screen in ubiquity

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “ubiquity” source package in Quantal:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On the quantal beta 2 image - 20120925, I'm trying to do the
  screenreader test.  So far I've been able to reproduce this with both
  i386 and amd64+mac.  After starting orca, things seem to work ok
  through the welcome screen in ubiquity, but then it quits reading.
  Starting with the screen titled "Install" with the text at the top
  "Preparing to install Ubuntu", it doesn't read the screen any longer.
  Nor does it seem to tell me when I press keys like enter to move on.
  Other apps are still read to me after this by orca though.
