I think you need to go to /etc/pulse and find a client.conf and in there you will see a line which says autospawn and make sure its no. If you do this you will need to make sure speech-dispatcher is set to use alsa instead, in the speechdispatcher.conf file. I am not sure what to do if you are using espeakup, I always run using speechd-up and speech dispatcher when I use speakup this way. I hope this helps.
