Sorry if this is an FAQ but is there a solution to that problem with running both speakup & orca in debian 7? Every time I've installed debian 7 (aka wheezy), I can use speakup fine unless I log in at the GUI and run orca. At that point, speakup stops talking and nothing I've found short of rebooting gets it working agin. I understand this has something to do with pulse audio run in the GUI. -- --- John G.
