The volume is low after the drum sound, so take that volume knob to the
max. On Fri, 11 Sep 2015, Hank Smith, and Seeing-eye dog Iona wrote:

Subject: Re: ubuntu mait help
Hello I tried that.
as well as all of the instructions people have been suggesting
and I still can't get it to talk once the drum sound happens.
it is unmuted as well so sound is working.
should I look in to yet another distro?
I really want to use ubuntu mait.
sense sonar and my machine don't play nice.

Hmmm, maybe I was confused about the installer you are using or perhaps
what I found was too old. In looking at debian accessibility there is
reference to the gnome live cd and it does talk about starting orca. I'm
pasting what it says (can't figure out what super-alt-s is!) and paste
the link.
The gnome liveCD has screen reader support. At the boot menu, one has to
type enter (TODO: add beep). Then the desktop launches up (TODO: add
beep), and one can press super-alt-s to start Orca.

Well, I went looking for this, partly because it seems you've gotten
no answer and partly because I have a frustrating situation with two
old computers with different wifi cards that can respond to a scan but
don't connect. I was thinking about trying the live cd in them to see
whether that would do wifi for either of these machines but frankly
this link below looks rather confusing so I don't know whether or not
I'll try it. I imagine you have already read this so it's probably not
helpful but it's all I've found so far.
