GRML and apollo synth

Hello,
I can't get GRML to use my apollo synth automatically. Reading the cheat
codes file it says that for speakup synths use speakup_synth=synthname,
so I tried booting with:
grml brltty=al speakup_synth=apollo
Brltty started fine but speakup didn't start. Knowing that speakup 3.0.x
uses the form speakup.synth=synthname I then tried using that form:
grml brltty=al speakup.synth=apollo
Again brltty started fine but no speakup. I know that the apollo driver
is there because when I do:
modprobe speakup_apollo
speakup starts working.

Has anyone else had this trouble? Is there anything GRML should have
done to make the kernel options for speakup work when they built speakup
as modules (eg.add the speakup modules to the initrd)?
