Re: [orca-list] problem with orca/gnome sound

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

Your problem is with speech dispatcher.  You have to tell it that you are using alsa as the sound output and 
not pulse audio which is the default.  From your console session with Speakup, type spd-conf and press enter. 
 Then, follow the prompts for a user-specific setup.  When you get to the sound output question, type alsa 
and then hit enter.  Proceed through the remaining options.  Once you are done, orca should talk in Gnome.

Subject: [orca-list] problem with orca/gnome sound

Hi.
I installed Debian Linux some Days ago.
There are no sounds at all in gnome.
I didn't want pulse audio, so I removed that.
I can get alsa to work in the console.
But not in gnome.
There was no sound when I had pulse audio installed either.
I thought that the problem was orca so I ran orca --text-setup.
The only message I got was the question if braille should be activated.
That was the only question.
Shouldn't there be more?
At least it was Before.
What can be wrong here?
