Re: Orca speech still messed up

it creates the default setup.
thats what we want.
orca ignores the speech-dispatcher configuration. it has its own preferences. so changing the "espeak.conf" will not have any affect to orca. it is just used as default if the application did not overwrite with there own settings (spd-say i.e. use it i think).
the pitch is found on voice tab in orca.
you can select different pitches, volume and voices for Capital, hyperlink, system and default text.

Yes. I've done all those things. Still messed up.

There is now a new espeak.conf under
/usr/share/speech-dispatcher/conf/modules. I tried changing the max
rate in that one with no results.

But you moved the settings away bevore reinstalling right?

My espeak.conf file is still there and is unchanged, but the speed has
not improved.

I reinstalled speech-dispatcher and restarted Orca. No change.

it should be no problem as long you dont stop speech-dispatcher while
reinstalling.
you should be able to do this with
|sudo apt-get --reinstall install speech-dispatcher
on an debian system.
you should not remove and install it since removing will maybe also
remove orca as dependency.

How can I do this without losing speech? I assume you mean apt-get
remove speech-dispatcher and apt-get install speech-dispatcher?

howdy,

did you try to renew all configuration files for speech-dispatcher
# move global configuration for speech-dispatcher
sudo mv /etc/speech-dispatcher/ /etc/speech-dispatcher-old
# remove your user specific settings
sudo rm -r /home/<user>/.config/speech-dispatcher/
# remove any root specific settings
sudo rm -r /root/.config/speech-dispatcher/
and resinstall speech-dispatcher then?
cheers chrys

The only espeak.conf file now left on my system is my modified
version, the same file that allowed me to adjust the rate before.
Espeak is still slow and raises the pitch for capitalized words.

BTW, under Orca preferences I cannot select espeak as the
synthesizer.
It only lets me select "default synthesizer".
