[orca-list] speech lost in Orca-2.1.9



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

Hi all. Since my last post, I have since been able to get Orca running quite well (after fixing some 
installation/startup-related problems). However, I am currently intermittently losing 
speech while running some applications; some in particular that seem to be problematic are the file browser, 
and Gnome-terminal. Sometimes Orca will read the windows for the above apps, 
sometimes it doesn't. At the times when the contents of a window is not read, the only workaround I have 
found so far is to restart X/Gnome. I have also been able to consistantly reproduce the 
problem, by switching back and forth between text/X consoles a few times. In an effort to debug the problem, 
I scripted out 
the following at the command line, to continuously monitor the state of the Orca processes:
while true; do ps ax | grep -i orca >> orca.processes; sleep 1; done
When I viewed the contents of orca.processes, I found the following:
25864 tty2     Tl     0:01 /usr/bin/python -c import orca.orca; orca.orca.main()
25848 tty2     T      0:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/orca
25846 tty2     T      0:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/orca
25844 tty2     T      0:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/orca

- From what I can tell, my loss of speech is atributed to the processes being thrown from the 
runnable/interruptible sleep states, to stopped/traced. I also noticed the same behavior with 
regard to the various espeak-synthesis-driver processes. Does anyone have any idea what might cause 
this behavior? Other than the strange process states as described above, I get no other indications as to 
what the root cause of the problem could be i.e., no tracebacks in Python. My current 
environment currently consists of Python2.5, Gnome-2.18, Gnome-speech-0.4.10, and Espeak-1.21. Thanks in 
advance!
