[orca-list] Speech and sound stop when switching tracks in Rhythmbox

[Garrett Klein <garrettklein comcast net>]

Hello all,

This is a strange problem I've had both in Arch Linux and Gentoo, using 
both gnome 2.26 and 2.28 (2.24 as well, I believe) with alsa. Basically 
what happens is, say I'm playing an album in Rhythmbox. When one track 
ends, both espeak speech and sound from rhythmbox simultaneously stop. 
The terminal bell works, however. Pressing alt-f2 and typing orca 
restores both. I believe this is an espeak-synthesis-driver segfault, 
which tends to happen on my snd_intel_hda-based sound card. Any thoughts 
or suggestions on solving the problem or giving any of you more info for 
debugging purposes are welcome.

Thanks,
Garrett
