I tried the live version (debian 9.9 amd64) which includes speechd-el
2.8-2 (instead of speechd-el 2.7-1) and it works properly.  Apparently
the $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (which is set both in the live i386 debian 8.5
and amd64 live 9.9) is correctly used by speechd-el 2.8-2 but not by
speechd-el 2.7-2.    This is only an educated guess, I haven't checked
the source code.
