getting orca and espeakup/speakup to work together

[Jude DaShiell]

thinkpenguin.com sells sound cards that plug into usb slots and you plug
speakers into the other end of the card.  On my system I have only one
analog card.  Since I bought one of these usb cards I think I'll plug it
in and see if my system suddenly finds a second analog card.
