Today I did a little more research and it seems that this warning only occurs if a flatpak app is running. Indeed I am using such a program, its a chat app called Mattermost I need to use for work.

So now I wonder if this is a problem with the app and I should contact the developers of this program or if this is a problem with flatpak in general or with flatpak and my current settings.

Do others who are using flatpak get this warning too if a flatpak app is running while starting orca in the terminal?

What does this warning mean regarding accessibility for my system? I do not notice any problem and I can use all my programs, even the flatpak Mattermost app, without a problem.
