I went through all my settings and purged whatever I found not necssary.
.local, .config and .mozilla I renamed. I still have issues. When I try to
capture another debug log (attached) I get this traceback on the console that
I started Orca on:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/orca/input_event_manager.py", line 239, in process_keyboard_event
    event = input_event.KeyboardEvent(pressed, keycode, keysym, modifiers, text)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/orca/input_event.py", line 137, in __init__
    if self.keyval_name.startswith("KP"):
       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith'

Thanks
Sebastian
