Actually I wrote that part :)

Basically, please test images from
http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/espeakup/

I have added "sid" images which are using the 2.6.37 kernel.  Some
drivers have been forgotten in that image, it'll be for next round. My
alsa patches to add sound support in the debian installer are submitted
to maintainers, we just need to wait for acceptance (shouldn't be too
hard) and I'll add the packages to the standard debian installer and
talk with debian-boot people about how to make it easy to enable it at
boot.
