Orca does not speak

I rely on "orca -r" quite a bit, actually. There are any number of
conditions that can silence a running Orca that can be quickly remedied
that way. Guess I never noticed I stood for "replace," and the
juxtaposition of "screen-reader" really threw me. Replace my screen
reader? With what?

Best,
