Hello,
As for the squeaky voice, the pitch shift is probably too high for
IBM TTS.  Maybe you should change it from 3 to 2 or 1.
It seems that you are using Speakup 3.0.3, which didn't strip
off the quotes around the caps_start and caps_stop strings.
When you load them with speakupconf, Speakup isn't removing the enclosing
quotes that it added when they were saved.
Try running these two commands:

echo -n '\x01+2p' > /sys/module/speakup/parameters/caps_start
echo -n '\x01-2p' > /sys/module/speakup/parameters/caps_stop

You might want to put these in a shell script.  Call it after you
load your settings with speakupconf.

Hope this helps,
