Hello,

Someone I met asked me to do some research for them about Ubuntu for the visually impaired.  I set up Orca (out of the box) and it worked 'alright' for the main items in Ubuntu 14.04. 

However, the most useful area for it to work it does not work. Someone on Youtube demonstrated the issue well.  it does not speak the results of the searched item, just the main headers and what you are typing:

It would seem to me to be quite an easy fix to make it work. It would seem that all you have to do is have the system read the main file name as it is selected....

But I'm clearly not a programmer. ha

Anyways, I hope this helps and thanks for any updates because I would like to see this explode as the costs of the other ones seem to be very, very high.
