Hi,

Haven't tried the livecd since 2008.11, but on that one, I think you could type
grml swspeak
to prepare it for speakup. When it's booted fully, you can type swspeak to activate it. From there, if you think your sound is muted, you should be able to use alsamixer 
to adjust the levels. 0-9 should change it to 0-90%, page up and down should chaneg by about 3 or 5%, up and down should go by one. m should toggle mute, and left and 
right should move between devices.
It may be different for th elater cds though. Anyway, hope this helps some :)

Thanks,
KJ4UFX
