Subject: emacspeak accent driver and chaging the speech rate
List-Id: <blinux-list.redhat.com>

Hi all
Is anyone else using the accent driver for emacspeak?
I'm having a problem trying to change the speech rate.  As far as i can tell from the manual, to change the speech rate in emacspeak, I do ctrl-e d r, then type in a new value. hit enter. and it should change.
I type in the new value, hit enter and the rate doesn't change at all.
am I missing something obvious here?

thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Regards Nick
