I'd guess your problem is either with echo none
>/proc/speakup/synth_name, with modprobe -r, or with both. I know I've
reported problems here in the past about the kernel going bye-bye when
echoing none to synth_name, and when modprobing speakup
modules. Others have reported modprobe issues here as well, so your
report isn't the first, it just serves to confirm that a problem does
in fact exist in certain configurations, but not in others, as I've
also mentioned in the past.

As for why you don't get speech, I would have to guess you don't have
software speech configured properly, or are again loading speakup
modules before starting speech-dispatcher/speechd-up, causing things
to act strange.
