GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 590682
Orca does not always speak the Paths table of the OOo Options dialog correctly

Steps to reproduce: 1. Get the swa11y32 dev build of OpenOffice. 2. In Writer, get into the Options dialog and choose OpenOffice.org -> Paths. 3. Tab to the table of paths and Down Arrow to select the first item. 4. Shift+Tab out of the table, and back into it. Expected results: Orca would speak the selected item. Actual results: Orca displays the selected item in braille, but only speaks "panel". Work around: Down Arrow and then Up Arrow.
Created attachment 140930 [details] [review] fix It turned out that we were speaking the selected item but speech was getting cut off in onActiveDescendantChanged. This patch solves the problem by handling this case in the soffice script, "tucking away" the appropriate pointOfReference info without actually presenting anything to the user. Pylints to a 10, passes the regression tests, will (I believe) solve an issue we're seeing with the Navigator, and is low risk. Committed to master.
