If you are using a serial synth and you turn it off after a few keystrokes speakup will consider the synth dead and quit sending output to it. If you then turn it back on, you need to do an insert-enter after turning it on and speakup will try to re-initialize the synth. You'll know if it succeeds because speakup will say LiteTalk/whatever re-initialized.
