The speech-dispatcher-git package addresses all this or I should say, that it corrects the default output module situation and sets things up so it can be run as a central service if you want. I need to update the install script so it will remind the person to add the user to the speechd group. I haven't had any problems with speech-dispatcher-git so if there are any other issues with it, let me know and I can fix that. I own the speech-dispatcher-git package in the Arch User Repository (AUR). Maybe the package in Extra can be modified to include some of what I do with the git version. At least as far as doing in-place edits to the config files any way.
