Just tested it, and there's no chance without a braille display.
Note: Brltty is designed to work as a braille program, and speech
support is additional. Till now it does not work on its own.

What Linux is on your laptop? Maybe it is compiled with speakup
To check type:
modprobe -l speakup*
If no result, then it is not there.
You might use either Yasr or SBL as screenreader.
http://yasr.sourceforge.net

The first one is speech only, the latter can be used with braille and/or
speech.
