Hi,

As stated in the subject, we're talking about a console screen reader, so that eliminates Gnome. I did try YASR a very long time ago on I think Debian and got errors so I gave up. I think it said it couldn't access the serial port or couldn't find a synthesizer. This would be with a Doubletalk LT and Speakup. I think I turned off Speakup when I was testing but it seemed to make no difference. I also tried Emacspeak without Speakup and yes, it works, but is difficult if you don't use Emacs. Also, it is not a daemon and is useless without Emacs installed.

Yasr should theoretically work with FreeBSD, although I haven't tried it in a long time. If you couldn't get it working, then I'm curious what problems you had. Emacspeak should also work (as well as Orca if you're using GNOME).
