Hello,
Orca doesn't have an 'espeak' module for speech synthesis, as I recall.
What it does have is a Gnome Speech module. Gnome Speech in turn hooks into
Speech Dispatcher, which hooks into Espeak.
Now, I have had no difficulties with Orca forgetting any preferences of
mine--it uses Espeak just fine.
Hope this is helpful,
Zack.
