Ok, I see.
So the behavior you expect is not actually implemented by Orca, it's the
a2 screen driver that takes precedence in the text fields because it
knows it brings better support in that case (the cursor routing you get
is achieved by the brltty core itself, not the a2 driver which is only
the "messenger").
So it's not really Orca that "depends" on brltty-x11, it's just that
brltty-x11 is an interesting complement to Orca, to improve screen
reading.
That being said, perhaps the orca package should still recommend
brltty-x11, the same way it recommends xbrlapi which also improves it.
We however need to be very cautious because installing brltty-x11
installs brltty, which enables usb-serial drivers which hurt ftdi serial
adapters users. I'll see how to arrange that.

I'm using brltty 6.5 which is in ubuntu 23.04. But I discovered this problem
also in debian buster and bullseye with brltty 6.3.

I confirm that without brltty-x11 you can not navigate nor use cursor
routing.
Just to make sure: which version of brltty is this? There was a bug
concerning keys in brltty 6.6, and a2 running might have a side effect.
