trouble with viavoice and speech-dispatcher

[Willem van der Walt]

Just checking, for viavoice to work you need the commercial viavoice 
engine and not only the open-sourced sdk.
I suppose you have the engine installed as well.
If not, you are getting exactly what is expected, a running non-speaking 
setup.
Regards, Willem
