speakup goes oops/bye-bye on wheezy

Here is all I got from the logs -- there is no pulse audio log by
itself, but in the normal kernel logs I have

Since X is not running I am not surprised that it says there is no
display.  But I see nothing about a card.
My /dev/dsp is:
crw-rw-rw-+ 1 freeswitch apache 14, 3 Jun 15 04:40 /dev/dsp

and my /dev/snd is:
