for what its worth, I use archLinux on all my systems, and I use orca with
gnome and gdm.
I have never had sound problems, and I use speakup as well.
I also have never disabled pulse.
I follow these simple rules:
1: I use one user specifically for graphical use.
2: I never try to use speakup and orca in the same session.
This seems to work for me and I just don't have problems with it.

I have gnome and gnome-extra on the system and removed mate and mate-extra by
now. I have managed to login with gnome and proved it by running
gnome-terminal then using the backspace key a few times until I heard
repeated beeps each time I hit the key. I ran speaker-test inside
gnome-terminal and heard static on speakers too.
Unfortunately, orca for archlinux is packaged incorrectly since when started
even under these conditions orca does not talk at all but only shows its
setup screen.
Also, orca.desktop file did not come in the orca package and that may or may
not contribute to the problems. running orca, orca --replace, and
alt-super-s in turn failed to bring orca up talking.
