Summary0007560: Problem installing Kali with screen reader
Description

The screen reader is not turning on when I choose the screen reader installation option.
The voice synthesizer doesn't say anything and it's impossible to install Kali by a blind person.

Indeed there was a bug in 2021.4 that broke the voice synthesizer. It should be fixed if you download the weekly image, rather than the 2021.4 image. Please choose weekly in https://www.kali.org/get-kali/#kali-bare-metal

Alternatively, please wait the release of the image 2022.1, it should be out in around two weeks.

This can be closed now that Kali 2022.1 has been released
