Subject: Re: [orca-list] speech bug or linux bug

It might be a Linux bug. I think the audio stack is messed up somehow. I also
experience audio problems at the login screen. Using Ubuntu Mate 19.04,
controlling the audio volume on the user login windows is impossible. It usually
defaults to 50% or 75% until I reach the desktop, then I can turn it down.
