Do these actually have a sound card?

It was decided to include speech only on amd64/i386 for now because of
size contraints, and because e.g. embedded machines are usually accessed
through a serial console anyway.

But nothing is cast in stone of course, and it can be reconsidered, we
just need to find arguments to give to the debian-boot team. On amd64,
it makes the non-gtk CDROM initrd go from 4626KiB to 6328KiB, that's not
neglectible.

Note: Simon, better *always* include the mailing lists. Mailing a
single developer will often get a delayed answer, be it for timezone
difference, or simply vacancy!
