OK, I will speak about my problems with gnome-speech.
I run a debian sid (amd64) and try to run orca. I compiled orrca from
sources.
When I will run orca, a speak say "welcome to orca" and crashed. In the
console I can read the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Something looks wrong with speech. Aborting.

sdellit@server:~$
I download the sources of libgnome-speech3 by apt-get source
libgnome-speech3 and try the test-speech aplication.
The following happens:
sdellit@server:~$ test-speech

Can everybody help me to make this test correctly?
