I ran the following: sudo adduser audio lenny and I got the message that lenny was already a member of audio. speaker-test works as sudo, but no sound without sudo. Just like spd-say, no errors, just no audio. Any ideas? Thanks.

Also, you need to decide what you want speakup to use. More likely espeakup and speech-dispatcher will just get in each other's way. If you're going to stick with voxin, you want to use speechd-up. If you're going to stick with espeak, you want to use espeakup.
