I built LFS 7.7 and have it running with both speakup and Brltty. All you 
have to do is select the staging drivers/speakup and the sound support item 
in the kernel configuration. Install alsa-stuff. Add your appropriate kernel 
modules in the appropriate files; the book tells you where to add modules, 
should you need them that aren't autoloaded by the kernel. What I then did 
was copy my voxin libs from the host into my new system, add the right init 
script to have the connector come up and bingo. I had speakup going.
