Ok hi, here is another fun one for you all.  DefaultModule  dtk-generic 
All other out put modules are remarked out.  And guess what I have to
issue the command like this to get speech from the dectalk 
Spd-say -o dtk-generic "dectalk software 5.0 is running. Using the pall
voice." it accepts all my default pitchis rate etc.  But I still have to
force the output module.  Thanks.  This is getting strange but one pluss
side I am getting real good at editing config files.  It is very ill
wind indeed that does not blow some good!

Hi, thank you very much for what ever reason giving it the full path ran

fine with out the full path from the command line.  Go figure.   Thanks.

This is not the case, with recent versions at least. However what I do, 
is edit my /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/dtk-generic.conf file and add 
the absolute path to the execution string. So I have the following:

GenericExecuteSynth \
"echo \"[:n$VOICE][:ra $RATE][:dv ap $PITCH]\" >/tmp/dtk-speak.txt \ &&
echo \"$DATA\" | fmt >>/tmp/dtk-speak.txt && /usr/local/bin/say -fi 
/tmp/dtk-speak.txt"
