Re: [orca-list] I hate pulse

Also, if you're using Speech-Dispatcher with Orca, you'd need to edit
/etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf
in two places.

First, here's my current setup in the section labeled:
# -- AUDIO OUTPUT --
AudioOutputMethod "libao"
#AudioOutputMethod "alsa"
 
Then, something like the following in the section labeled:
# Audio device for ALSA output
AudioALSADevice "plughw:0,0"
 
 You'll probably need to reboot after making these mods. I've never
 successfully gotten sd to behave by simply restarting it following this
 change.
