Great, good to know. (More stuff on the way to avoid ENOSPC…)

The locally generated netinst image for amd64, using almost-final
debian-installer material (built pre-22:00Z britney so before adduser
and user-setup migrated) is able to start the speech synthesis at least
in KVM, when started with `-audio driver=pa,model=ac97` (on my Debian
12 GNOME desktop, with pulseaudio dealing with sound), both in BIOS mode
and in UEFI mode, so the aforementioned commit doesn't break everything
at the very least.

(I don't follow many things in linux.git, especially not sound-related
changes, but the diff didn't look crazy at all, otherwise I wouldn't
have pushed it. But I'm also a little reassured to confirm at least
basic/minimal support for speech synthesis…)
