Hi Jan:

Is this a problem only when speech dispatcher support is used?  If so,
the speech dispatcher support in Orca is all done by Tomas Cerha from
Brailcom, and any changes to it are currently being maintained by him.  

If you can reproduce it with a gnome-speech driver talking directly to a
synthesis engine (i.e., not the gnome-speech driver talking to speech
dispatcher), let me know.  I've tried using the gnome-speech driver for
eSpeak, however, and cannot reproduce it.  :-(  The mechanism I used to
test it was by rapidly arrowing through menu items in gnome-terminal.
