This means that a screen reader user has no way to know when it's OK to login. There is no "beep" on backspace at the Login and Passwd entry. More seriously still: SoundOnLogin=true SoundOnLoginFile=[some].wav in /etc/gdm/custom.conf continues broken. Of course we're needing the additional benefit of starting Orca for TTS via Ctrl-s, Orca with braille via Ctrl-b, etc. I can't comment on anything other than sound myself, but will be happy to investigate the other gestures if that's desired. But, what should we expect for sound?
