Re: Activation of Speech Dispatcher under squeeze



Hi.  Looks like just editing a speechd.conf I copied to ~/.speech-dispatcher wasn't enough to get it working
I only changed the default audio from pulse to alsa.

I am really starting to think the best answer for all this mess is to downgrade to speech-dispatcher 0.6.
