Yes.  The individual drivers for the various TTS engines aren't built unless 
the TTS engine is on the system at build time.  Once DECTalk is installed 
properly on your system (verify you get speech with the `say` application in 
the DECTalk directory), you need to completely re-build gnome-speech to 
compile & install the DECTalk gnome-speech driver.
