Re: [orca-list] no speech with orca and mate desktop

[Don Raikes <DON RAIKES ORACLE COM>]

After doing some investigation, I have discovered that my system does not inllude the package python-speechd 
which according to the speech-dispatcher / orca document I ws reading is required.

The kali repositories only contain python3-speechd which I have installed, but still I get no speech with 
spd-say.

I ran spd-conf to create a speech.conf file, and selected a system-wide configuration wit hespeak, and libao. 
 I restarted speech-dispatcher from /etc/init.d but still no success.

I am at a bit of a loss at this point, so any other suggestions would be welcome.

Under eihter configuraiton (Pulse or libao) does spd-say work? This is a good way to test Speech-Dispatcher 
independently of Orca.
