Awesome. Thanks!!

That's what Orca should already be doing. In fact, that is the source of
the problem with the leaked file descriptors: If braille support is
enabled, every time Orca has something to present it tries again to
establish the connection. If Orca just gave up, we'd have *a* leaked
file descriptor; not hundreds of them.

So I'm guessing that you found an instance where this is failing?

Thanks again for the speedy fix for this issue!
