I've not actually tried this on the Debian stable system I am playing with here, but generally, there's a bit of setting up to do: in version 23 of emacspeak, which is the newest one, they recommend you obtain a copy of Linux Out Loud, from a website that appears not to exist anymore. I think there is a way to get it to use an external synth though. There are howtos on ldp, but they seem to be older. emacspeak.sourceforge.net has a nice installation manual.
