I tend to update globally about once a week, usually on Fridays. With today's update of Speech-Dispatcher-git Espeakup is broken. 1.) I boot to a console login. Works as expected. Speakup speaks with Espeak on hw:0. Yes, I'm using alsa, not pulse. 2.) I launch the graphical desktop with startx and Orca comes up over Speech-Dispatcher using libao on hw:1 as specified in speechd.conf. 3.) Switching back to any console, speech is gone. Doing a systemctl restart espeakup puts speech on hw:2. This is bonkers. PS: Isn't it time we could control what device the soft synth driver speaks to with a configuration option? Perhaps an additional parameter in /etc/conf.d/espeakup? Or is it supposed to be in /etc/speakup/espeakup? Both those configs say basically the same thing, but they're not symlinked. Why?
