When I create and run a Java GUI application using frames in Eclipse, NVDA doesn’t read anything in the screen. It properly reads the objects when I hover the mouse over the components and it announces all the objects when I press NVDA+B. However there’s no speech at all while navigating with the keyboard.

I’m sure it’s a problem with NVDA and not my code or the java access bridge because my application works fine with the Jaws screen reader.

Any ideas on how to fix it? I’m more comfortable with NVDA rather than Jaws and will be grateful if someone helps me to fix this issue.

Here is my entire NVDA log including the error for reference:

Note: I also tried disabling the remote add-on because there’s a line about it in the log as well. The result is the same.
