I don't know the answer about speakup intercepting the key strokes, but
you can solve it with orca by re-defining the key commands. This can be
found in the orca control panel under its own tab.

I know that I asked yesterday for information on how to kill speakup, and for the most part that works as expected.  However, I find that somehow Speakup seems to still be intercepting my keyboard commands in some cases.  I want to use Orca's laptop layout: a requirement because I don't have a keypad.  It uses the capslock key for some of it's functions, the same as speakup.
