Ah nothing sounds like DECTalk like DECTalk 😉 That is a good idea. I am not versed in Linux development so I have no idea what is involved with using that. I would assume it would need at least one more component to be developed to accpt the serial port input, respond to the control characters and pass the input to that DECTalk code.
