RE: Distorted speech in Orca on 14.04
Thanks Milton, I've made the alterations to /etc/pulse/default.pa that Majid posted and so far everything seems good. Cheers for your help.

When this happens on my machine Ipress Alt_F2 and type killall speech-dispatcher then press enter.

So far all appears to be well, apart from the fact that Orca will sometimes produce distorted/garbled speech. It's as if the speech rate goes so high that you can't make out what is being said. This doesn't happen all the time, but there doesn't seem to be a pattern to it either. When it does go distorted, you can tab away from the control you were on and tab back to it, and it will speak the control properly at the normal speed. I've done some searching but couldn't find any definite pointers that might help pinpoint the problem. Can anyone offer any suggestions of things to try?
