hi
I seriously doubt fedora would do anything like that deliberately. If
they had, there would be a change log entry. Pulse is a problem for
speakup, no doubt about it, but otherwise usually just works. This is
really a speakup problem and needs to be fixed by the speakup devs,
because pulse audio isn't going away. Now that I've said all that, I
don't know  how to solve the problem reliably. If you can get into the
gui, make sure speakup is running, and then run sudo espeakup, while
in the gui. After that, speakup should work as normal. It's something
to do with pulseaudio and speakup conflicting with each other. Just as
an aside, speech-dispatcher's alsa support really leaves something to
be desired. It frequently crashes when using espeak
Thanks
