Debian Buster installer and speech issues

[Jude DaShiell]

Okay, I tried this two different ways and had failures in all cases.
First thing to understand was that mini.iso allowed me to use my usb
speakers to install in all cases.
Cases were package selections of 1 2 6 10 12 and the second case only
had 12 for package selections.  On completion the usb speakers clicked
but no speech or sound ever came out of them for both cases.  I logged
in on both cases and ran speaker-test and had a headset attached to the
speaker and mic jacks and only heard static through the headset.
both speakup and orca failed to start in each case.
