Sorry for not answering sooner. You can get orca to generate a log that 
will tell you if it's having trouble communicating with brltty. Put 
something like the following in .local/share/orca/orca-customizations.py:

import orca
orca.debug.debugLevel = orca.debug.LEVEL_ALL
orca.debug.debugFile = open('debug.out', 'w', 1)

Then restart orca. It will log to a file called debug.out. You can then 
scan this file for "braille" or "BrlTTY" to look for errors.

Hth,
