Required hardware forSpeakup

[Sina Bahram]

I can't understand this ... Are you telling me that having 2 or 3 or 4
things talking to a sound card in linux, is that hard?

I want to be able to play mp3s, have software speech, listen to a blurb from
a website, and hear operating noises all at the same time, on the same sound
card.

I should not have to do a single extra thing to get something as basic as
that to work.

Is it really that difficult?

Take care,
Sina

Dmix does not, however, allow one to use flite for software speech and at
the same time run mplayer or any other software that uses sound for that
matter.  I have not been able to get flite to work with aoss yet, either
using aoss or by any other means.  The best I got when I tried this was a
slowed-down, distorted, garbled mess.
