Re: [orca-list] speech-dispatcher, Hardy and pulseaudio

[Guy Schlosser <guyster bex net>]

Hey there Hermann, I can answer two out of three questions for 
you.  I did set up my espeak.conf file to choose pulse by editing 
espeakaudiooutputmethod="pulse" (was originally alsa).  As far as 
reasons for trying pulseaudio, I'm looking forward to certain 
benefits, like being able to send sound to other devices (e.g. using 
one set of speakers for music, other for speech).  Lastly, how do you 
test pulseaudio itself to insure its working?  I can tell you I have 
sound in all my other apps.

Thanks,


Guy
