I note that orca is supposed to autostart by default:

   $ apt-file search autostart | grep ^orca:
   orca: /etc/xdg/autostart/orca-autostart.desktop
   
Seems it only happens when the screen-reader option is enabled in the
GNOME settings. I am not sure if MATE sets that setting though.

   $ grep -iE 'exec|condition' /etc/xdg/autostart/orca-autostart.desktop
   Exec=orca
   AutostartCondition=GSettings org.gnome.desktop.a11y.applications screen-reader-enabled

You could try enabling the GNOME screen reader setting manually:

   $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.a11y.applications screen-reader-enabled true
