When the system starts, the card ordering is not reliable so on occasions the non working asus card is card 0 hence producing no speech output.I'm surprised: what ALSA_CARD do you have in /etc/default/espeakup?Interesting, I have not modified /etc/default/espeakup but it does not seem to specify a card: ALSA_CARD=""Oh? were you installing with speakup enabled during installation?
Yes I was so I am not sure why a default card was not written to /etc/default/espeakup unless it was because the installer only detected one of the cards?
OK, thank you, so do I just need to specify in /etc/default/espeakup or should it be somewhere else?Is this known and how can I force the onboard card to be always card 0?Normally the installer uses named identifiers instead of numbered identifiers: in /proc/asounc/cards you can find e.g.Here is /proc/asound/cards 0 [MID ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel MID HDA Intel MID at 0xfbff8000 irq 31 1 [DGX ]: CMI8786 - Xonar DGX C-Media Oxygen HD Audio at 0xce00, irq 19 I am not sure that this order is retained when it boots in the non-working state.That's where specifying either MID or DGX instead of 0/1 allows to avoid relying on the ordering.
