The solution is to run pulseaudio in system-wide mode, like we do in Vinux, built on Ubuntu Lucid. In short: - Edit /etc/default/pulseaudio and set PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=1. - Edit /etc/pulse/client.conf, and set auto-spawn=no - Edit /etc/pulse/system.pa, and set 'load-module module-native-protocol-unix auth-anonymous=1' The first item causes pulseaudio to start in system-wide mode on startup. The second keeps gdm from starting it's own copy. The third disables authentication, and allows all users to access the sound card.

I've read that to get espeakup working well with pulseaudio, you need to compile it with pulseaudio support enabled, which for some unknown reason is not currently the default. I'll probably be looking into this in the next few weeks, since speechd-up has a problem where it says Capital all the time, which drives people nuts, and we'll probably ship Vinux 3.0 using espeakup.
