more fixes for my modded speakup

[Zachary Kline]

Hey,

The news about the DecTalk with serial converter is awesome, as the recent weirdness with Espeakup/Alsa attest. DO you have any idea when this might be merged back into the mainline? I haven’t done any kernel compilation in a long time, le alone patching like this.

Thanks,
Zack.
