Hi All,
I tried looking for help on the RaspberryVI list,
but nothing helpful was offered.
In fact, except for one other person, I have seen
almost no traffic there, so I thought I might get some help here.
I'm trying to get two RaspberryPIs working, an
older model B or B+, not sure, and a newer PI 4.
I downloaded a Buster image from the RaspberryPI
site, it was dated January of this year, so when I ran them and SSHed into them
the updates I ran did a minimal update.
The older model, as soon as I booted it, it spoke
and offered the control alt space to install Orca, and I did and it rebooted on
its own when it finished.
The PI4 never did speak, so I installed Orca via
SSH on that one.
eSpeak and spd-say did not talk at all via SSH
until Orca was installed.
But even though Orca is installed on both PIs, the
desktop is silent.
The only way I can hear eSpeak is through
SSH.
speaker-test via SSH works, but not from keyboard
input.
Orca is in the autostart directory, and pulseaudio
is there too.
Is Pulseaudio possibly causing issues?
I am running both out the audio jack, I never use
HDMI.
I used raspi-config via SSH to set things up,
including the audio out source.
I'm hoping someone here has some
ideas.
Thanks much.
Glenn
