I don't use Orca, but in brltty itself go into the Preferences
menu. Text style should be set to 6-dot computer braille. The option
below that is to expand current word. Set this to No.

I'm using brltty 4.3. Older versions worked a bit differently. But as
to whether this will affect Orca I have no idea.
