Hi Halim:When using gnome-speech, Orca doesn't run the speech synthesizer directly. Instead, gnome-speech starts a synthesis driver in a separate process and Orca talks to it via CORBA. The impact of this is that you need to get to the gnome-speech driver and not Orca.
If you like hacking and want to experiment, you can try doing something such as replacing the gnome-speech synthesis driver for a TTS engine with a shell script that sets up whatever you want and then calls the original synthesis driver. For example, you might:
mv /usr/bin/espeak-synthesis-driver /usr/bin/espeak-synthesis-driver.orig
cat > /usr/bin/espeak-synthesis-driver
#!/bin/bash
<<<special stuff here>>>
/usr/bin/espeak-synthesis-driver.orig
Not sure how this would work, but it might be an interesting experiment.
