I think you have tried about most of the things I would have suggested. There is one thing I can think of though, you could test brlapi for functionality (check that the security features aren't getting in the way, I am assuming you have read that information about allowing brlapi to work). You could test brlapi by creating the examples in the brlapi manual at the brltty website. If that suceeds but Orca still doesn't produce braille then we know that the problem lies with orca.
