Bill, I think now this is not help, but I confirm this problem with both I386 and Amd64 architectures. This is not a hardware specific problem, because I see this problems with lot of machines. The 1,2 second delay for example my notebook is 2-3 sec. If I disabled Pulseaudio, impossible listen musics, videos, etc. If I enabled pulseaudio, impossible using Karmic with Orca, because Speech-dispatcher producing long delay, Gnome-speech driver cuts all end of sentence words. This is absolute unacceptable. What can I choose? I using old, good working Jaunty system, but the support time is limited with this system (18 months since 2008. april).
The following topic is little offtopic with this bug: I tested, the Karmic specific problems is present with Debian Squeeze. No, this problems absolute not present. If I remove Pulseaudio, don't disturb Totem, GNOME-Volume applet, etc. Interesting, but in Squeeze, GNOME version is 2.28.x. Speech-dispatcher, GNOME-Speech driver works very well. If Pulseaudio is running, not producing Karmic specific problems, GNOME-Speech driver does'nt cutting end of words, and Speech-dispatcher does'nt producing delay. You absolute right with first comment. Unfortunately I can not help founding workarounds, but if need testing any possible useful fixes, I help testing welcome.
