Bug#864262: unblock: espeak-ng/1.49.0+dfsg-11



Hi,

Samuel Thibault <sthibault@debian.org> (2017-06-05):
> espeak-ng used to have overlapping speech synthesis issues (#848016):
> e.g. while moving fast in a list of items, the speech of each item would
> get mixed with the previous one, making it difficult or impossible to
> hear. We reduced the buffer size of espeak-ng from 200ms to 50ms to
> considerably reduce the issue.
> 
> However, the modified buffer size happened to break the use of mbrola
> voices (#860891), so we raised it a bit, from 50ms to 60ms, like
> upstream did, to fix that.
> 
> However, that brought back some of the overlapping issues, making it
> tedious to use...
> (https://lists.debian.org/debian-accessibility/2017/06/msg00002.html)
> 
> I have thus uploaded a version -11 of espeak-ng (attached debdiff) which
> reduces it to 49ms, which avoids the overlapping regression, and which I
> have tested as working with all mbrola voices.

> unblock espeak-ng/1.49.0+dfsg-11
