Hello there, Interesting! For a short while, I’ve used Mint, with Mate, and this problem hasn’t acurred to me. Well, I myself don’t know what to suggest,… well, actually, try installing RHVoice, and see if that helps or not. And, the default sinth that came with Mint, at least for me, was Espeak NG, so… I hope you manage to resolve your cap problem one way or another, it would be a waste to not use that new laptop. Best regards. Francisco. From: Matt Dizak via orca-list Was just using the Default synthesizer that comes with the latest version of Linux Mint, which for all intents and purposes, is Ubuntu. Flipped over to eSpeak, and same thing though. Then flipped to that "Magri" one or whatever it's called, and sound disappeared, so back to the old laptop for now. :-) Matt On 3/5/21, Francisco Tissera <audiogamer2004 gmail com> wrote: > Hello there, > > > > Yeah, my guess as well.
