As I understand it, when those previous messages were saying "it should be possible" to get speakup working with a USB serial port convertor, the meaning was that it is technically possible for speakup to be modified to do that, but not that speakup can do it with the code as is. You probably can (I would expect) that you could use the external synth with one of the other linux screen readers (eg. those which use emacspeak speech servers (orca can, but only some of the drivers, to my disappointment), and of course emacspeak. I don't know about yasr and screader.).
