Hi all,
Teddy, you will not hear anything in any other console because you
have Emacspeak with the software speech running in only one console.
The other consoles have no speech in any other console. Only way to
get that is to start a second emacspeak session in a separate console,
or to use speakup which gives you speech throughout.
