It is not a workaround, this is how it is done. It is not recommended to run Speech Dispatcher system-wide. This is why I've asked if you have a special reason for it. Normally, user would just start the client (Orca, speechd-el, spd-say) and the client would autostart Speech Dispatcher inside the session. This is supposed to work without any configuration. Please let me know. I'd of course like to understand what is your motivation, perhaps other users have it too and we should try to simplify it for them. Best regards, Hynek Hanke
