Hi Zack and all, You've got a couple of options now. Samuel Thibault sent a patch to the Debian Accessibility list to fix the issue in libasound. I've been running with that patch over here, and espeakup seems to be working fine. I put that patch up on my server so everyone can get it easily: http://the-brannons.com/asound.patch On Arch, you can add that patch to your ABS tree, adjust the PKGBUILD, and rebuild alsa-lib from source. If you'd rather use the environment variable workaround discussed earlier, I think the following steps should work for you under systemd. Copy /usr/lib/systemd/system/espeakup.service to /etc/systemd/system. Edit /etc/systemd/system/espeakup.service. Find the line that says [Service]. After that line, insert Environment=LIBASOUND_THREAD_SAFE=0 -- Chris _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://linux-speakup.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/speakup
