Hi. Since you can get test-speech to work, your problems are something else. I don't know what your problem might be from your info. (and I might not know even with more info), but post some log files and we can try to figure it out. Subscribe to the gnome-accessibility list and post your .xsession-errors file. I know Kirk is usually cool about off topic posts, but we should probably move what might become a lond thread to the correct list. Hope this helps.
