Brltty and Speakup

Has anybody ever tried to run Brltty and Speakup together?  I have a
PowerBraille 80 on my machine and think it would be neat to use it under
Linux.  However, I am not willing to give up the great speech support of
Speakup.  I know that in the Microsoft world of DOS and Windows, there are
plenty of screen readers that have both speech and Braille support, but
they aren't common under Linux.  I am wondering if I can expect conflicts
between Speakup and Brltty.  Speakup uses a Type 'N Speak on /dev/ttyS0
and the PB80 would be on /dev/ttyS1.  Thanks in advance for any
information.
