First, be sure that you're running Orca 3.3.91, not the 3.2.2 version that's
currently in Debian unstable. The 3.3.91 package hasn't been uploaded, but it
isn't hard to upgrade a package and build it, or you could wait for the
upload.

If the problem persists then, it's likely to be an Orca issue rather than a
BRLTTY one, and I would suggest taking a debug log and discussing the issue on
the Orca list.

I have the latest packages installed on my laptop, but I haven't tested them
extensively yet. I should be able to run some tests this afternoon or
tomorrow.
