Which version of espeakup does grml have installed?  If it is older than
0.60 there is no way to set the default voice.

If it is newer, you have to do two things:

First, as root, type this command:

echo 1 >/sys/module/speakup/parameters/direct

Then some how pass --default-voice=pl on the command line that starts
espeakup.

Let me know if you need any more assistance with this.

Thanks,

William
