Hi.. I follow accessibility lists and thought I recognized this as a
topic of theirs so I'm "playing along" to finally learn a little more
about it.

I was able to install speechd-up successfully, BUT I have no idea if
it's functional because I don't know how to use it.

I'm on a super basic debootstrap'ed Stretch with Xfce4 as my primary
desktop environment. I've got Fluxbox and something else small that
I've forgotten because I haven't switched around between them in a
while.

All of this is being provided in case it somehow helps explain why
it's working for some of us and not for others.

About the only programs I have are: Libreoffice, GIMP, Inkscape,
Openshot, newly installed Piviti, Xine, and PySolFC (card games).

For sound, aumix is my hero because I went almost a year without sound
until I discovered that package. Others installed include GNOME ALSA
mixer, Qas mixer, mpv video player. Seriously, I was desperate and
downloading things that even remotely sounded like they might help
trigger sound back on.

Again, am mentioning all those because maybe they did something that
triggered at least a successful install. Whether it actually works as
intended or not, I have no clue aka literally clueless.

As for systemd, I haven't touched a thing there. My system is whatever
comes with a debootstrap install.

I'm on a now older ASUS 10" where "uname -a" gets: Linux northpole
4.9.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.2-2 (2017-01-12) x86_64 GNU/Linux

That's all I can think to write right now. :)
