I tested this running espeak w/o parameters and pushing enter several times. 3) Same behavior for unprivileged user and root running espeak.

Bug#591717: espeak: found why device is invalid
Package: espeak
Version: 1.44.05-1
Severity: normal
I tried your advice with espeak 1.44.05-1.
I suggest you adopt the following patch, or else a modification of
espeak-data/config/pa_device is ignored.

@@ -496,7 +496,8 @@ void LoadConfig(void)
else
if(memcmp(buf,pa_device,9)==0)

- sscanf(buf[7],%d,option_device_number);
+ sscanf(buf[10],%d,option_device_number);
}
else
if(memcmp(buf,soundicon,9)==0)

Then, with espeak-data/config/pa_device set to 0 then 1,2,3,7, I got the
same following result with each value. At least the alsa device is
selected, and the message makes sense.

This is in function wave_open_sound() which tries to open a sound channel for output. Error number -9996 means invalid device, but I don't know what that means in this context. espeak tries to open a sound channel for 22050 Hz, 16 bit, mono. If the error is -9998 (Invalid channel count) it will try stereo, but that is not the case here. If 22050 Hz is not available, the error should have been -9997 (Invalid bit rate). Error Invalid device may suggest something wrong with ALSA data. eSpeak can be made to use a specified device number (I'm not sure what device number means), by a line in the file espeak-data/config You could try adding a line: pa_device 1 in the file espeak-data/config, and change 1 to a number that works. Is this an index into a some ALSA data? This number sets the value of variable option_device_number which is used at line 503 in function select_device() in wave.cpp. I don't know much about this code. It was written by Gilles Casse gca...@oralux.org, so he may have a better understanding of this problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
