You need to find out what the cause is of the underlying crash. You do need to terminate speech-dispatcher before starting another instance of Orca. As I remember, the speech-dispatcher maintainers had it on their bug list to fix, but unfortunately they're as under-resourced as other projects in this area tend to be.
