Have you tried this with gnome-speech???????
I am not using hardy but I installed and configured pulseaudio for
gnome-speech with padsp.
It is not usable because it is (((slow))).
It takes some time to stop speech-synthesis.
I have changed some nice level realtime scheduling etc it didn't help
me.
It can't be an alternative for speechd with direct alsa support.


Have a nice Day.
