Bug: speech stops when reading long documents

[Tony Baechler]

Hi,

 From what I can tell, all of the text is written to the screen even 
though it isn't spoken.  It's hard to know for sure because the Speakup 
commands don't work but if I press keypad Enter and keypad Plus to read 
what's on the screen it reads text that wasn't previously spoken.  Also 
I can press the backspace and get a beep from Bash implying that I'm at 
a shell prompt.
