[orca-list] Gnome-speech is silent after changing form SD back to GS

[Hermann <steppenwolf2 onlinehome de>]

Hi,
in order to test the reading behavior in OO, I switched speech back from SD 
to GS, to see if any changes ocur.
After selecting GS as system and Espeak as synth, I heard - nothing.
The speech stays silent even afte restartign Orca. The sound device is OK, 
I can play sound files.
When using GS as systen and SD as synth Orca is talking. Using GS with 
Festival results in silence.
So what's the matter now? I'm getting more and more desperate about the 
whole 
project: Nothing works as expected, and the issues seem to rise.
