Does this include any machines running a Debian based Linux? It used to be the case that Chromium didn't have NACL support in the Debian distributions, so you couldn't get ChromeVox to work. This wasn't true in Chrome though, which you could use in Debian based distributions.

Chromium works with speech-dispatcher on all my machines here. First I
installed Chromium and added the ChromeVox extension. Then I copied
/usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop into
~/.local/share/applications and edited the Exec= line as follows:
Exec=chromium --enable-speech-dispatcher %U
Upon saving the file, Chromium when run from the menu or with a URL from
MATE's run window will start with ChromeVox and speech-dispatcher
enabled. Keep in mind that GNOME's run window doesn't allow typing a URL
directly as in
https://google.com/
so in GNOME, you will need to run Chromium from the overview or
explicitly add the --enable-speech-dispatcher line as in
chromium --enable-speech-dispatcher https://google.com/
Hope this helps.
