When reading Kindle books, both on Kindle and with Reverb, I muted voiceover. I
discovered that after interruptions braille showed me in a window with my full
user name, not just the short form that shows in the home directory, and a
dimmed blank for password. If I tried to vo-tab away from this window the
window would disappear and it couldn't be found with vo-f2 twice. I think this
window is the source of the mysterious login announcements some of us have
noticed for a while and I am speculating that the stoppage of Kindle's text to
speech is related to this and is due to a loss of focus. I have screensaver set
to "never" and I use auto login so I cannot figure out what triggers this and
given that the password field is dimmed I don't think the purpose of the window
is actually to request me to log in. I just wish this would go away but it has
been around for a while now and it still remains with every update. While I
hear the words I never actually get placed in this window when voiceover is not
muted. I can not help but wonder how many other focus issues and other abnormal
behaviors are the result of the popping up of this window.
