Steve,
My doubletalk LT works fine in arch also, wikth kernel 2.6.34, although
I normally use espeak for regular activities. Here is how my speech
modules are handled:
In /etc/rc.conf, I have this line:
MODULES=(speakup speakup_soft)
In /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf, I have this line:
options speakup_soft start=0
and in /etc/rc.local, I have these lines:
# extra speakup modules
modprobe speakup_ltlk ser=0 start=0
# start talking
talkwith soft espeakup
speakupconf load
I hope something above might be helpful.
Chuck
