In addition, Emacspeak (which is not a screen reader but a full speech interface to Emacspeak and its extensions) has always included its own speech servers. Orca used to be compatible with these, but the necessary support hasn't been maintained by the Orca community. If mixing happens at lower levels of the audio system, then at least multiple speech applications will be able to write their output to the ALSA device simultaneously, and the user will hear the end result - which might well not be intelligible. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
