Can't get Orca Screen Reader working on the latest version of lightdm on arch LINUX #229

I am a blind user of Arch LINUX using Espeakup for the TTY and Orca for the desktop environment. These are screen readers. In certain distributions, such as Ubuntu 20.04, you would be able to press alt + super + S to start Orca. But this is no longer possible. I have tried in Ubuntu 21.04, 21.10, and now Arch, and it won't work in any of these. I would hope that this could be fixed as it would allow blind users like myself to easily use this display manager, which is considerably lighter on system resources than other display managers.

Many thanks in advance.
