At one point, I used my phone to read the screen after pressing insert+Space. The orca settings was open. I also typed firefox in the run box, then alt+D then typed www.youtube.com I hit the H key for headings a few times to move to a video link and hit enter. I could hear a faint Clicking every now & then. That makes me think its a problem with the sound. The f4 didn’t help.
