Now this is interesting. I did rm -fr ./config/pulse and then rebooted the system to clear memory and played a webm file I have on vlc. Afterwards no change to speech happened at all. So it is possible what configure-pulse is writing is causing problems. This is a current version of

I predict this will be found not to be a fenrir problem at all but a pulseaudio problem. The reason for that is I have some pulseaudio support for vlc installed on my system and had removed speech-dispatcher-git and fenrir-git from my system since speech was being slowed down here too.

For starters, I sent webvisum a message about unsigned addons and extensions maybe that problem will get fixed. Whether it gets fixed or not, I'll search around in about.config (inside firefox)?, and see if I can find and change allow unsigned apps to run at least temporarily until webvisum

I ran it while trying to make fenrir work. Now everything is VERY slow and I get weird pitch changes with caiptal letters. Before, I was able to adjust the max rate in the /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/espeak.conf file. That file is still there, but the rate settings no longer seem to apply. I
