For speech, it supports Alva, BrailleLite and CombiBraille. For braille,
it supports a very long list, which can be seen on the brltty web site:

It doesn't have internal support for software speech, and so on DOS it
doesn't support speech (that would require sound drivers, etc.)

It doesn't support it.

Dave Mielke would sure be glad to add more hardware support to brltty.
