I think that's the problem.  So far as I know, Speakup still doesn't 
support serial ports that aren't built-in to the computer.  Since 
computers generally don't come with serial ports anymore, that is a huge 
problem.  Somehow, there needs to be a way to pass IRQ and port addresses 
to the module so that such PCI serial cards can work.  I've never 
encountered a PCI express serial card, so don't know if any special 
support in the kernel is required, other than the obvious of having 
support for PCI express in the first place.
