I don't yet know if the force worked or not. With both commands an
error message to the effect cannot open DISPLAY :0 was returned. I have
mate running on this system if it helps too.

When I use xclip it's with speakup running not orca so no display exists.
Unfortunately xclip cannot handle a run without a display being set. I
tried copying a link in speakup with xclip so I could run it in firefox with
orca and link my computer to my dropbox account but that's not possible.
You can force display:
DISPLAY=:0 xclip -o
echo foo | DISPLAY=:0 xclip -i
