No, The insertion of the 
. /etc/profile.d/speechd.sh
line in /usr/bin/orca should cover that.

Just make sure speech-dispatcher is running and that the speechd.sh
file in /etc/profile.d is marked executible.  Your ability to run
spd-say should confirm that already as long as nothing is being
autospawned.

Oh, I forgot; did you add yourself (user) and gdm to the speechd
group?  That step isn't done automatically.

I think I will be putting some reminder messages to this fact in the
install script.
