Right, there is something very odd going on here regarding loading the
modules.
I have an appollo connected to the serial port.
There is an entry in /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf loading speakup_soft.
However, on booting the system, speakup_apollo is loaded and the apollo
works but I cannot work out how that module is being loaded.

The load/unload is about the module itself, i.e. modprobe speakup_bns ;

With /sys/accessibility/speakup/synth set to bns, I am getting output
alternately from the bns and from soft. It's as if speakup can't make
up its mind which synthesizer is being used. When I echo soft
/sys/accessibility/speakup/synth, I get no speech at all from either
synthesizer. Doing rmmod of all three speakup modules comes back with
no errors. There is also no unusual output in dmesg, I can see both
synthesizers being registered and unregistered as I switch between
them.
I can also reproduce this behavior with speakup_soft, and speakup_dummy
specifically:
Also the same with speakup_soft and speakup_apollo on debian buster updated
as of 9th October 2018.
1. modprobe speakup_soft and modprobe speakup_dummy
2. The synthesizer should now be set to dummy in
/sys/accessibility/speakup/synth.
3. Use the speakup review keys, press enter a number of times. You
should observe output from both the software speech, and from the
serial port alternating between each other.
4. echo soft >/sys/accessibility/speakup/synth
5. You should observe no output from either software speech or the
serial port as you use speakup review keys, or press enter
repeatedly.
6. echo dummy >/sys/accessibility/speakup/synth
7. You should alternately get speech from the software synthesizer and
from the serial port.
I built my kernel from the 4.17.1 kernel.org sources, and the patch
that Samuel reposted applied cleanly with no errors.
