Bug Description

When navigating through the menus in the unity panel with Orca, I hear an underscore before each menu title is announced. Examination of various logs, including the orca debug log, and the accerciser object list and event monitor, also shows that an underscore is being placed before every menu title.

This problem does not occur with gnome-panel and the indicator-appmenu applet, so I suspect its a unity bug for this reason.

Luke, in which menus/applications do you see this? I have been testing with the indicators and several applications and never hear that underscore thing in orca. So I guess it is a specific application's fault?
