If you use the grml live-cd just enter speakup's kernel cheatcodes
at the bootprompt:

grml speakup_synth=dectlk

This should activate the speakup kernel module for the dectalk synth.

BTW: If you do not have a hardware synthesizer you can try booting
with the new swspeak option:

grml swspeak

This prepares the system for use with software synthesizer through
speakup. Just run 'speechd-up' after booting up to activate sound
output then.

A list of all available cheatcodes is available online as well:
