Speakup not speaking first letter, usually after hitting enter

[stp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Tommy Moore)]

heh, we have a temporary fix for this problem.
In /usr/src/linux/drivers/char/speakup/speakup.c
On or around line 440 in the reset function look for a line that says:
synth_write (synth->config[FLUSH]
Then just below that line put:
synth_write ("\x20", 1);

Then do the make bzImage process again and reinstall the new kernel and
this should fix the problem.
