This is preventing gdm from being accessible at all.
Starting with gdm 3.0, the login session is a failasafe one, meaning autostart applications are not started up. This is why your autostart condition is not meaningful. With the gdm-shell session, the shell itself includes a menu to start up a11y functionality when needed. This UI is not present in gdm-simple-greeter which is the interface of the gdm-fallback session. If your hardware supports it, the simplest thing to do is use the gdm-shell session instead; however this cannot be done by default in Debian. So what’s left is to add the necessary UI in gdm-simple-greeter. Cheers, -- .''`.
