Hi, I observe this for a longer time: Sometimes Espeakup stops working without any obvious reason, and, of course, there are no error messages. With the -d option, I can run Espeakup in the foreground, but this is not very useful, since I cannot log any eventual messages. So what to do to track this? I use Speakup 3.1.3 and the latest Espeakup from Git. Hermann --
