There should be a command for your display that allows you to unlink you 
braille display from the cursor.  You will have to look at the brltty key 
commands to find it.  THis may help.  However if the whole window scrolls 
there isn't much you can do about it.  It is a problem especially with 
multiple people in a chat.
