I tried it out.  I had to hack the ALSA SoundBlaster driver to do
hardware mute so I didn't blast my ear out with my microphone/headset
(and then I found that they had already implemented a few days
earlier) - but now I've got it working pretty decently.  I also
recompiled it so it will work full-duplex.

So whenever you want to waste some time, we can try doing the
SpeakFreely thing back and forth.  :-)

Cheers,
