In the case of Ubuntu, this typically isn't necessary. Being able to use 
another sound system with gnome-speech, however, seems to require a 
rebuild of the system. Ubuntu currently comes with PulseAudio, and that 
introduces quite a lot of latency with Orca. Does Lenny use another
sound server, or does it go straight to oss or alsa?
