I tested this again today with an Ubuntu desktop legacy image dated 20230918 and encountered the same bug where the screenreader works with ubiquity if you do not choose "Try Ubuntu" and launch the installer again.
If this isn't going to be fixed or isn't fixable then I suggest we close this out as "Won't Fix" and release the issue. ** Tags added: rls-mm-incoming ** Also affects: orca (Ubuntu Mantic) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Also affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu Mantic) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Also affects: at-spi2-core (Ubuntu Mantic) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Summary changed: - screen reader does not read ubiquity window + screen reader does not read ubiquity window after it is launched in "Try Ubuntu" session -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to at-spi2-core in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1923052 Title: screen reader does not read ubiquity window after it is launched in "Try Ubuntu" session Status in at-spi2-core package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in orca package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in at-spi2-core source package in Jammy: Incomplete Status in orca source package in Jammy: Incomplete Status in ubiquity source package in Jammy: Confirmed Status in at-spi2-core source package in Mantic: Incomplete Status in orca source package in Mantic: Incomplete Status in ubiquity source package in Mantic: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1.
