Hi.

Since you can get test-speech to work, your problems are something else.
I don't know what your problem might be from your info. (and I might not
know even with more info), but post some log files and we can try to
figure it out.

Subscribe to the gnome-accessibility list and post your .xsession-errors
file.

I know Kirk is usually cool about off topic posts, but we should
probably move what might become a lond thread to the correct list.

Hope this helps.
