speakup and festival

[Owen Patrick Smith]

The keymap issues you are having are beyond my experience so I can't help
you there.  As for festival's speech rate and volume they are not
controllable by speakup right now.  With some effort you can change the
default settings for Festival by manipulating a configuration file, see
the Festival website for details.
