Comment 1 Willie Walker 2009-04-06 13:41:26 UTC 
I can verify this.  It's more of a problem where Orca is reading the previously active item in the object rather than the current item.  For example, if you continue to arrow up or down the list in question, Orca always reads where you were and not where you went.

In doing some limited triage, the problem seems to be that Orca is getting an object:active-descendant-changed event.  When it goes to determine what the new active descendant is, Orca is coming up with the old active descendant for some reason.  This might be an OOo bug, but this will need further investigation.

This is unfortunately an OOo bug.  The OOo team has been made aware of this issue and we will revisit it once it has been resolved in OOo: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=101012.
Comment 3 Willie Walker 2009-06-17 19:04:45 UTC 
The OOo folks have marked the OOo bug as fixed.  Not sure when we'll see it in an OOo release.  Just a data point - I still see the problem on OpenSolaris 2009.06, OpenOffice.org 3.1.0 OOO310m11 (Build:9399) [CWS:ooo31osol].
Comment 4 Arky 2010-02-15 11:47:52 UTC 
Confirm this bug is fixed in Ooo 3.2.0~rc4-1ubuntu1 in lucid.
