Hi Samuel,
I'll get this to you later. I've found a work around to not being able to
log into Mate. If you have more than one Desktop Environment you can log
in. If you only have Mate you have to change the selection from "default"
to "Mate" and it works, you can now log in and reboot and it will always
login.
I have screen reader but only in the console that is used to run Xorg.
Something strange though: I have 6 other consoles, 1 through 6 that I can
scroll through while Mate is running in Xorg.
So part of the problem must be that for Debian 11 a special console was
created just for Xorg.
I'll disable lightdm and startx in console 1 and see if I still have six
consoles or just 5 others.
That might give a clue as to why only the login console has screen reader.
Nap time.

Hello,
I can only repeat myself.
I am not getting theses issues in my tests, so we need information from
your machine to determine what is going wrongly in your case.
For the MATE problem, please bring it up to MATE maintainers who will
know what to inspect, we in debian-accessibility don't have the
knowledge of what log file is best to look at etc.
For the double card problem, we need the output of these commands:
amixer -c 0 scontrols
amixer -c 1 scontrols
cat /proc/asound/cards
echo /sys/class/sound/card*/id
cat /sys/class/sound/card*/id
lsmod
dmesg | grep firmware
cat /var/run/espeakup.card
amixer -c 0 scontents
amixer -c 1 scontents
There is no way the bug can be ever fixed if we don't have such kind of
information from your system.
Concerning shift pg-up/down, it's Linux that dropped the support for
software scrolling in the Linux console in version 5.9, because the code
is very complex and nobody was taking the time to maintain it.
