Hi,
i also have some problems with speech. I configured my files the following way:
speechd.conf:
# Global configuration for Speech Dispatcher
# ==========================================
# -----SYSTEM OPTIONS-----
# Port on which Speech Dispatcher should be available
# to clients.
#Port 6560
Port 1314
# By default, the specified port is opened only for connections
# comming from localhost. If LocalhostAccessOnly is set to 0 it
# disables this access controll. It means that the port will be
# accessible from all computers on the network. If you turn off this
# option, please make sure you set up some system rules on what
# computers are and are not allowed to access the Speech Dispatcher
# port.
# LocalhostAccessOnly 1
# -----LOGGING CONFIGURATION-----
# LogLevel is a number between 0 and 5 that specifies
# how much of the logging information should be printed
# out on the screen or in the logfile (see LogFile)
# 0 means nothing, 5 means everything (not recommended).
LogLevel 3
# LogDir specifies where Speech Dispatcher writes its logging messages
# (status information, error messages, etc.). Specify "stdout" for
# standard console output or a directory path. 'default' means that
# the logs are written to the default destination (e.g. a preconfigured
# system directory or the home directory if .speech-dispatcher is present)
# DO NOT COMMENT OUT THIS OPTION, SET IT TO "default" if you do not
# want to influence it.
#LogDir "default"
#LogDir "/var/log/speech-dispatcher/"
LogDir "stdout"
# CustomLogFile allows logging all messages of the given kind,
# regardless their priority, to the given destination.
#CustomLogFile "protocol" "/var/log/speech-dispatcher/speech-dispatcher-protocol.log"
# ----- VOICE PARAMETERS -----
# DefaultRate controls how fast the synthesizer is going to speak. The value
# must be between -100 (slowest) and +100 (fastest), default is 0.
# DefaultRate 0
# DefaultPitch controls the pitch of the synthesized voice. The value must be
# between -100 (lowest) and +100 (highest), default is 0.
# DefaultPitch 0
# DefaultVolume constrols the default volume of the voice. It is a value
# between -100 (softly) and +100 (loudly). Currently, +100 maps to the
# default volume of the synthesizer.
DefaultVolume 100
# DefaultVoiceType controls which voice type should be used by default. Voice
# types are symbolic names which map to particular voices provided by the
# synthesizer according to the output module configuratuion. Please see the
# synthesizer-specific configuration in etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/ to see which
# voices are assigned to different symbolic names.
# The following symbolic names are currently supported:
# MALE1, MALE2, MALE3, FEMALE1, FEMALE2, FEMALE3, CHILD_MALE, CHILD_FEMALE
# DefaultVoiceType "MALE1"
# Default language with which to speak
# DefaultLanguage "en"
# ----- MESSAGE DISPATCHING CONTROLL -----
# DefaultClientName specifies the name of a client who didn't introduce
# himself at the beginning of an SSIP session.
# DefaultClientName "unknown:unknown:unknown"
# Default Priority. Use with caution, normally this shouldn't
# be changed globally (at this place)
# DefaultPriority "text"
# DefaultPauseContext specifies by how many index marks a speech cursor should
# return when resuming after a pause. This is roughly equivalent to the number
# of sentences before the place of the execution of pause that will be
# repeated.
# DefaultPauseContext 0
# -----SPELLING/PUNCTUATION/CAPITAL LETTERS CONFIGURATION-----
# DefaultPunctuationMode sets the way dots, comas, exclamation
# marks, question marks etc. are interpreted.
# none: they are ignored
# some: some of them are sent to synthesis (see DefaultPunctuationSome)
# all: all punctuation marks are sent to synthesis
# DefaultPunctuationMode "none"
# DefaultCapLetRecognition: if set to "spell", capital letters
# should be spelled (e.g. "capital b"), if set to "icon",
# capital letters are indicated by inserting a special sound
# before them but they should be read normally, it set to "none"
# capital letters are not recognized (by default)
# DefaultCapLetRecognition "none"
# DefaultSpelling: if set to On, all messages will be spelled unless set
# otherwise (this is usually not something you want to do.)
# DefaultSpelling Off
# -----OUTPUT MODULES CONFIGURATION-----
# AddModule loads an output module.
# Syntax: AddModule "name" "binary" "configuration" "logfile"
# - name is the name under which you can acces this module
# - binary is the path to the binary executable of this module,
# either relative (to lib/speech-dispatcher-modules/) or absolute
# - configuration is the path to the config file of this module,
# either relative (to etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/) or absolute
#AddModule "espeak" "sd_espeak" "espeak.conf"
AddModule "festival" "sd_festival" "festival.conf"
#AddModule "flite" "sd_flite" "flite.conf"
#AddModule "espeak-generic" "sd_generic" "espeak-generic.conf"
#AddModule "epos-generic" "sd_generic" "epos-generic.conf"
#AddModule "dtk-generic" "sd_generic" "dtk-generic.conf"
#AddModule "ibmtts" "sd_ibmtts" "ibmtts.conf"
#AddModule "cicero" "sd_cicero" "cicero.conf"
# The output module testing doesn't actually connect to anything. It
# outputs the requested commands to standard output and reads
# responses from stdandard input. This way, Speech Dispatcher's
# communication with output modules can be tested easily.
# AddModule "testing"
# DefaultModule selects which output module is the default. You must
# use one of the names of the modules loaded with AddModule.
#DefaultModule espeak
DefaultModule festival
# LanguageDefaultModule selects which output modules are prefered
# for specified languages.
#LanguageDefaultModule "en" "espeak"
LanguageDefaultModule "en" "festival"
#LanguageDefaultModule "cs" "festival"
#LanguageDefaultModule "es" "festival"
# -----CLIENT SPECIFIC CONFIGURATION-----
# Here you can include the files with client-specific configuration
# for different types of clients. They must contain one or more sections with
# this structure:
# BeginClient "emacs:*"
# DefaultPunctuationMode "some"
# ...and/or some other settings
# EndClient
# The parameter of BeginClient tells Speech Dispatcher to which clients
# it should apply this settings (it does glob-style matching, you can use
# * to match any number of characters and ? to match one character)
# There are some sample client settings
Include "clients/emacs.conf"
Include "clients/gnome-speech.conf"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
festival.conf:
# -- FESTIVAL SERVER SETTINGS --
# Address where the Festival server runs (you have to
# have a Festival server running, please see documentation).
FestivalServerHost "localhost"
FestivalServerPort 1314
#FestivalServerPort 6560
# -- AUDIO OUTPUT --
# Chooses between three possible sound output systems:
# "oss" - Open Sound System
# "alsa" - Advanced Linux Sound System
# "nas" - Network Audio System
# "pulse" - PulseAudio
# ALSA is default and recommended. The recent implementations
# support mixing of multiple streams. OSS is only provided
# for compatibility with architectures that do not include ALSA.
# NAS is an audio server with higher level of control over
# your audio stream, with the possibility to stream your audio
# over the network to a different computer and other advanced
# features. (The NAS backend is not very well tested however.)
# PulseAudio is a sound server for POSIX and WIN32 systems.
#
FestivalAudioOutputMethod "alsa"
# What OSS device to use when Open Sound System is
# chosen for the audio output.
#FestivalOSSDevice "/dev/dsp"
# What ALSA device to use when Advanced Linux Sound Architecture is
# chosen for the audio output.
#FestivalALSADevice "default"
# Route to the Network Audio System server when NAS
# was chosen for the audio output. Note that NAS
# server doesn't need to run on your machine,
# you can use it also over network (for instance
# when working on remote machines).
#FestivalNASServer "tcp/localhost:5450"
# -- PulseAudio parameters --
FestivalPulseServer "default"
# Maximum length of the buffer
FestivalPulseMaxLength 132300
# Target length of the buffer
# The server tries to assure that at least FestivalPulseTargetLength
# bytes are always available in the buffer
FestivalPulseTargetLength 4410
# Pre-buffering
# The server does not start with playback before at least
# FestivalPulsePrebuffering bytes are available in the buffer
FestivalPulsePreBuffering 2200
# Minimum request
# The server does not request less than FestivalPulseMinRequest bytes
# from the client, instead waits until the buffer is free enough to
# request more bytes at once
FestivalPulseMinRequest 880
# -- CACHING --
# Festival output module supports a caching mechanism for
# repeated events like characters, keys and sound icons
# that saves the wavefiles retrieved from the synthesizer
# and uses them next time an identical request is issued.
# This way, the synthesis is much more responsive when
# you type in keys, you spell some word by going over it
# with cursor keys, sound icons are faster and so on.
# If you wish to enable this caching mechanism, turn
# FestivalCacheOn to 1, or switch it off by 0.
# FestivalCacheOn 1
# How large should the memmory assigned to output module for
# cache should be. Festival will never overcome this limit.
# If there are more messages to save, the ones that are least
# accessed will be removed from the cache. So if you set this
# parameter too low, the module will often have to synthesize
# your request (which takes time) instead of just retrieving
# it from the cache, but you will save system resources. If you
# set it higher, it might make the module more responsive.
# The value is given in kilobytes, default is 10 megabytes.
# FestivalCacheMaxKBytes 10240
# Normally, the cache pool is common for all voices, rates and
# pitches. This means that when for example the key 'r' gets cached,
# you change the voice and request the key 'r' again, it will be
# retrieved from the cache and you will hear the old 'r' instead of a
# new one. By default, it only switches between languages. In most
# cases, this isn't a problem for characters, keys and sound icons and
# it saves system resources. But if you want to keep separate caches
# for different voices (and even rates and pitches), please set the
# corresponding parameters to 1. (0 means don't distinguish).
# FestivalCacheDistinguishVoices 0
# FestivalCacheDistinguishRate 0
# FestivalCacheDistinguishPitch 0
# -- FESTIVAL PERFORMANCE --
# Switching FestivalReopenSocket to 1 will make the module close the
# connection to Festival each time the currently synthesized wavefile
# is no longer needed to finish and new text is waiting. This may improve
# Festival responsivity on slower machines, but might cause a more network
# trafic. Currently, the option is set to 0 by default, because there
# is a network problem in Festival socket communication layer that introduces
# unnecessary delays that affect the performance heavily in this mode.
# Unless your Festival is patched against this bug, switching this on
# is not recommended.
# FestivalReopenSocket 0
# -- DEBUGING --
# Debug turns debugging on or off
# See speechd.conf for information where debugging information is stored
Debug 0
# If FestivalDebugSaveOutput is set to 1, it writes the produced sound tracks
# to /tmp/debug-festival-*.snd before it says them. You can later browse them
# for debugging purposes. They are numbered in order starting from 0.
# FestivalDebugSaveOutput 0

Hi,
are you sure the server is running ? Try
sudo /etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher restart
on my Hardy box, I have to edit the /etc/default/speech-dispatcher file and replace a "no" by a "yes", and then start the daemon
--Pascal

When launching my link with the autopilot in get an error about the voice... Here is the message:

I am not sure why i am getting this.. I really could use some help on this since the voice is actually a big help when in the field
