When you were doing make config, or make menuconfig while compiling
your kernel, there should be a prompt at the end of the speakup
section, which asks you to enter the 4-6 character keyword for your synth, to
use as the default. By default, the keyword is none. Did you change it
to say "apolo" in your case, instead of none? 

BTW, that config prompt should say 3-6 character keyword, since bns is
a 3 letter keyword.
