Hi George,

Can you elaborate a bit on the Bluetooth thing, as I’m not clear I understand. I have not upgraded to the latest version of NVDA, chiefly because of complaints like this and compatibility issues with add-ons and other software, and I’m not having any issues with GIT bash on my computer. Are you saying that keyboard echo isn’t spoken aloud when using a Bluetooth speaker or headphones? Thanks.

Luke

Hello,

 

The problem is with Bluetooth Audio version 1.4. I’ll let the author know.

Hmm No idea then.  I just use the Ubuntu or Debian prompt with wsl so I have not used that sorry.    NVDA seems to  work with all the Ubuntu, Debian, Powershell, and cmd.exe.  I wonder if some script needs to be updated.

When you say git bash console do you mean wsl or something else.  The character echo is working for me in wsl.

Hi,

 

In Git Bash console, the key echo is not working. In a command prompt it is. It was working prior to 2022.1

 

I tried modifying in advanced settings the new setting for the console It did not seem to do anything.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Best

George
