You're right.  A few experiments show that it appears to be cutting off 
the last character that gets sent to it.  In other words, if you echo a 
string to caps_start or caps_stop, the last character gets chopped off. 
The only way I've found to restore Speakup to proper behavior after this 
is to echo "soft" to /sys/module/speakup/parameters/synth, then echo 
"dectlk" to the same file.  In other words, by switching synthesizers, it 
resets everything to default values.
