GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 583947
Orca continuously announces call duration in Ekiga
Last modified: 2009-05-27 01:16:55 UTC
Please describe the problem: As of the most recent addition to the Ekiga script for Orca, which contains enhancements to allow chat windows to be automatically spoken, it seems unable to distinguish between a chat window and a call window. Thus, any text appearing in the call window, such as duration and codec information, is continuously spoken making it necessary to disable speech in order to stop this from happening. As Orca speaks this regardless as to what window is actually focused, this makes it impossible to work with any other application while on a call in Ekiga using speech. Steps to reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Use the most recent Ekiga script as of the time of the filing of this bug. Launch Ekiga and place any call. If you have speech enabled, it will be reproduced. Actual results: See description above. Expected results: Either Orca should provide call duration on request or not provide it at all. Listening to it every second it is updated is unnecessary. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: Full debug.out is bzipped and attached.

Thanks! Will you please pull the latest git master and see if the problem still occurs?
Setting a target of 2.26.3 so that we don't forget, just in case I missed something in the fix I committed to git master and the gnome-2-26 branch. See bug #511468 comment #8 for the fix.
Jacob emailed me: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi Seems to work fine, thanks.

(And phew!) :-) Thanks Jacob, both for the confirmation and for filing this bug. Closing this one as a dup since that's where the fix was attached. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 511468 ***
