Chris, thanks much! I was wondering what took down my talkingarch
system! Fortunately I have the downgrade script installed so I can not
only downgrade alsalib but also put it on the ignore list until further
notice. Something that wasn't mentioned in archlinux documentation was
if you want to take something off the ignore list explicitly install it
with the -S option and answer yes to the prompt about the package being
on the ignore list and you get the package installed.

Subject: you really do not want to upgrade to alsa-lib 1.1.2
So alsa-lib 1.1.2 breaks a couple things that use espeak,
notably both espeakup and the espeak speech server for emacspeak.
You'll start to have lockups after a bit of use.
Here's what little I have been able to piece together so far.
