hi
I'm going to take a guess, and it's only a guess. There are usually
four speech-dispatcher modules running at all times, whether or not
they're being used. Sd_espeak. The espeak driver. Sd_dummy. The dummy
driver that does nothing but speak repeatedly a test message.
Sd_cicero, a speech-dispatcher driver for some kind of synth, I think
swedish? And sd_generic, the generic sd driver. They probably each
have their own pulseaudio channel opened so they can speak, even
though only one is in use at a time. I think this is a high priority
to fix in speech-dispatcher and is being worked on now, both to
improve system performance and also to reduce the lag on low resource
systems. Again, just a guess, I'm no speech-dispatcher developer
Thanks
Kendell clark
