virtualbox

[Alan Bell]

hello, yes I have had problems with 12.10 in virtualbox for sound,

https://launchpad.net/bugs/1016969

it is possible to get to the pulse audio dialog and change the device to 
one of the two LFE devices, I can try it again later and provide the 
exact key sequence to do so. I didn't tag that bug as an a11y bug 
because it is an "audio totally broken for everyone" bug rather than 
orca specific issue even though it does mean that Quantal is basically 
untestable in virtualbox for blind users. It does boot OK when testing 
on real hardware and you get the drums and ctrl+s starts orca as normal. 
Ubiquity has changed a bit but I can get all the way through it without 
cheating and turning my monitor on, I will do a full keystroke guide and 
audio/video at some point pre-release.

Alan.
