Subject: Speech-dispatcher now working, sort of
Date: Fri, 2 May 2008 06:19:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <000601c8ac57$330e0c30$e0f7c180@ZKMOBILE> (raw)

Hi,
    Thanks to the suggestion posted on here, I managed to find the problem 
and fix it.  It was a small typo in a configuration file which I didn't know 
about.
    Now, Speech-dispatcher works, more or less.  The problem is with Espeak. 
The speech is rather choppy, for lack of a better word, at least when I try 
to use it with the speakup_soft module.
    It seems as if the first few microseconds of short phrases are being cut 
off, making them impossible to hear.  Longer phrases are understandable 
after a few seconds, but they, too, initially are cut off.  I'm not really 
sure how else to describe it.
    I have heard on other lists I'm on about problems related to Alsa 
1.0.16.  I wonder if anybody's found a workaround for them yet?
Thanks much,
Zack.
