I used all the defaults with speech-dispatcher version 0.6.1. I altered the default output module to espeak, and made it the only module to be loaded. Espeak works, because I can make it talk through the command line, even by creating a variable called $data and putting it to speak && aplay. Should I post the log from a session?
