It seems in most cases that espeakup/espeak still works even though it
says the jack server couldn't be started. Are you saying you aren't
getting speech when you modprobe speakup_soft, and start espeakup by
hand? If so, then have you tried doing:

invoke-rc.d espeakup start

after modprobe speakup_soft, instead of starting espeakup directly by
hand?
