Build Identifier: 

When I try to run the installation of Fedora 32 from the live CD with the Orca screen reader enabled, Orca does not speak after the Anaconda installer is launched.

Reproducible: 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Fedora Workstation 32 from the Live CD.
2. Once Fedora is launched, launch the screen reader with the keyboard shortcut ALT + SUPER + S.
3. Adjust the volume.
4. Tab to the Install on hard drive button, and press the space bar to launch the installer.
5. Once Anaconda has launched, try to move around the installation screen using the up, down, right, left arrow keys or the TAB key.
Actual Results:  
Orca does not read the installation screen.

Expected Results:  
Normally, as in previous versions of Fedora (up to version 31), the Orca screen reader should read the installation screen without any problems.

The Orca screen reader works fine on Fedora 32, except on the Anaconda installer screen.
