Re: [orca-list] Espeak weirdness in arch?

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I just assumed that people had actually seen an espeak upgrade come through, probably when those many 
packages all updated as Kyle mentioned.
Well, I just checked and there has been no espeak update this year. I still have the same espeak package that 
I installed when I first installed arch on 
this box in Febuary.
Any odd behavior must be caused by an interaction with other components and not espeak itself.
As I mentioned in another post I think he oddity I noticed has not reoccured after a day or perhaps more of 
strange behavior like not pronouncing the 
first character of many words and spelling out others.
I do not have the dates written down, but on the tenth of this month, Dec., portaudio updated.   
Also libpulse updated on the same day, both ar espeak deps.
I think this is an interaction with pulse and or portaudio.
