Re: [orca-list] Slow, Scratchy espeak when called with speech dispatcher in Solus Mate 3.9999

[Christopher Chaltain <chaltain gmail com>]

Well, I had to back out this change. When I added the parameter 
"tsched=0" then Orca would only echo pairs of characters as I arrowed 
through them. So for example, as I right arrowed over the word "pulse", 
I'd hear "pu ls e" instead of "p u l s e".
