The archlinux dvd comes up talking. But the instruction to copy
/etc/asound.state /mnt/etc puts the file there but I had to use
/var/lib/alsa/asound.state myself to do this. Everything was going good
until I typed alsactl store. Then I get told about
/var/lib/alsa/asound.state.lock file. I took the first system to reboot
level having finished everything else up and when it came up, I had no
speech.

It's /var/lib/alsa/asound.state. If you have a working Linux system with
sound, mount it and copy your asound.state over to /var/lib/alsa on the live
CD. You'll then have to run:
alsactl restore
That's what I had to do. It was not easy without speech, but fortunately, I
was already at a root shell.
I couldn't get thee sound card talking on a reboot so will have to download
another instance of this package.
What package do you mean and what sound card do you have? If it works in
Debian or some other Linux, it's probably related to the same problem I
encountered. Upon thinking about it, I think the sound problem might be an
Arch upstream problem and not specific to Talking Arch. Similarly, the
brltty problem has to do with the default brltty.conf and isn't specific to
Talking Arch.
