Re: speech-dispatcher + alsa +pulseaudio = noises

Hi Luke,
Many thanks for your reply.

Anything that I can do to help?

I know the C language and have some time available during the evenings 
and weekends.

Give me some tips, point me to some documentation and I'll try my best.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I tried the following experiment in karmic.

1. I changed the file ~/.pulse/client.conf.
from
   autospawn = no
to
autospawn = yes

2. I changed the file ~/.speech-dispatcher/conf/speechd.conf.
from
#AudioOutputMethod "pulse,alsa"
to
AudioOutputMethod "alsa"

3. Reboot.

No speech from orca, only noises.
All sounds are ok.
Any idea?
 

This is due to speech-dispatcher's alsa output code not using the ALSA API 
correctly, and thereby does not work properly through the plugin system to 
allow audio to be sent via the pulse plugin to pulseaudio.

The best thing to do is to use the alsa output only for use with alsa alone. I 
intend to fix the pulseaudio output code for lucid.

if I mistake not, need to compile the espeak to use alsa in another
audio port, as Andre said in another message.
