It happens to me too under Debian if I log out of Gnome, closing the X
session.

The problem is that Speech-Dispatcher isn't killed, and Orca doesn't
re-establish a connection with a running Speech-Dispatcher properly in these
circumstances. You can work around it by killing the Speech-Dispatcher process
once gdm is no longer running.

This is a bug that merits a report.
