I have speakup as modules and I find if I remove the speakup_apollo module using rmmod and then load it back in again with modprobe speakup starts working again. Does speakup start working again if you switch to another synth (may be soft or none) and then switch back to the doubletalk? It isn't a solution to the problem but at least it may mean you might be able to recover speakup when it is deactivated.
