speakup in ubuntu 10.04

The solution is to run pulseaudio in system-wide mode, like we do in
Vinux, built on Ubuntu Lucid.  In short:

- Edit /etc/default/pulseaudio and set PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=1.
- Edit /etc/pulse/client.conf, and set auto-spawn=no
- Edit /etc/pulse/system.pa, and set 'load-module
module-native-protocol-unix auth-anonymous=1'

The first item causes pulseaudio to start in system-wide mode on
startup.  The second keeps gdm from starting it's own copy.  The third
disables authentication, and allows all users to access the sound
card.
