Before editing a lot of files, I recommend to test whether SD runs at 
all:
spd-say "hello"
Take a look at:
/var/log/speech-dispatcher/speechd.log
is:
/var/run/speech-dispatcher/speech-dispatcher.pid
there?
Who owns that file (ls -l)?
Guy: Did you install from Ubuntu or did you get the packages from a 
different sorce? If this is the case: Ask Tomas to send you a modified 
speech-dispatcher startup script, that makes sure the pid file is 
created.
If nothing helps, see Daniel's suggestions.
