Description marmuta 2014-05-20 10:57:37 UTC 
I'm trying to get Onboard's [1] auto-show and word-suggestions to work with konsole, but got stuck at atspi_accessible_get_role () returning an unexpected value. Could someone have a look?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the sample (...I hope to attach below)
2. focus konsole
3. note ouput
Actual Results:  
atspi_accessible_get_role () returns 78238912

Expected Results:  
I expect it to return one of the constants here
https://developer.gnome.org/libatspi/2.13/libatspi-atspi-constants.html#AtspiRole
I think it should probably be ATSPI_ROLE_TERMINAL, at least this is what gnome-terminal reports.

I can reproduce this problem on Ubuntu 14.04 and Magaia 5 Cauldron.
