I also don't know what can be causing this, since gnome-mag update the
screen properly when controlled by Gnopernicus or when running
stand-alone, so it let me deduce that this behavior have something
related with Orca, but since I don't know Orca code, I can't say much
more about this and I don't know if I will be able to look closer at it
sooner.

Best regards,
Carlos.
