When I did a search for ubuntu system wide home permissions I got this as the first result: <https://ubuntu.com/blog/private-home-directories-for-ubuntu-21-04> Did you find this as well, and if yes, did you read it? As far as your speech-dispatcher error, when you run spd-conf, one of the questions it asks you is do you want clients to communicate through a tcp port or unix socket. You need to pick the unix socket choice. Alternatively edit /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf to set that option. You need to do a killall speech-dispatcher;speech-dispatcher or reboot for it to take effect.
