2. Activate screen reader

* If you interact with the Launcher orca will speech out that
4. Press a key like Alt, Ctrl or Esc
EXPECTED OUTCOME
Orca speechs out the name of this key

This feature is required so people could know the key that they are pressing.
Not sure if this is a Unity or a Nux regression. It would be required to check if the nux event inspector are working.

Finally it was not a nux bug.
In order to avoid gail and at_bridge being loaded, so using gtk AtkUtil implementation, unity needed to set the envars NO_GAIL and NO_AT_BRIDGE before gtk_init.
It seems that this was moved recently. The branch related to this bug solves this issue
