No, this only makes the speakup's output available to software speech,
but you need speechd-up to actually make use of this output and deliver
it to a software speech synthesizer through Speech Dispatcher.  See

This can be solved when using Speech Dispatcher instead of Gnome Speech
with Orca.  See http://live.gnome.org/Orca/SpeechDispatcher for more
information.
