Bug Description

 affects ubuntu/notify-osd

 affects notify-osd
 tag a11y

Since recent work in GTK3 to merge the gail module into GTK proper, notify-osd accessibility is broken. When a notification pops up, the orca screen reader should read the notification, for example when changing volume, Orca should speak "Volume" and the percentage. However now Orca says "Notification notify-osd".

---------------
notify-osd (0.9.33-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - change background colour to use the same median colour used in
      the unity dash (lp: #810325)
    - should migrate the user gconf keys values to gsettings (lp: #827897)
    - accessibility broken due to recent GTK3 changes (lp: #856071)
    - keeps on writing to .cache/notify-osd.log and waking up my drive
      (lp: #904835)
    - wakes up for every key/focus event after showing the first bubble

I got an update to notify-osd in precise, and now Orca reads no
notifications at all. It doesn't even say notification. Is there
something I'm missing?
