Hy Michael,

Possible doing similar fixes with Ubuntu 12.04 awailable Unity-greeter
package? Random time if screen reader support enabled in login screen
Orca exiting, and only two CTRL+S keystroke to possible restart the
screen reader. I not found now what bug report I reported this issue,
but oldest time in Ubuntu Accessibility and Orca list lot of users
confirmed this issue.

In latest Quantal awailable unity-greeter package following patches are
applied, I think this patches not compatible with unity-greeter
0.2.8-0ubuntu1.2 precise-updates repository awailable version:
   * debian/patches/close-orca.patch:
     - Make turning off the screen reader work again, now that the --quit
       argument to orca was dropped.
   * debian/patches/do-not-read-password.patch:
     - Workaround an orca problem where it doesn't notice the currently
       focused widget on startup. With this fix, it will no longer read
       your password as you type it. LP: #944159
