Hi, Well after a fresh installation of debian on both a virtual machine
on my windows 10 system and on my linux laptop I went about getting pico
working on my system threw speech-dispatcher and speechd-up. I was
wanting to have both working but if I set the audio output to libao I
get no speech but if I set it to alsa and disable pulseaudio I get
speech in the console but not in X windows. What am I doing wrong as I
made sure all modules accept the pico modules and the default module set
to pico-generic and have disabled espeakup from running. I also had a
mess when installing speechd-up it tries to start itself so the package
fails to completely install properly unless I stop espeakup unload the
speakup_soft module and reload it then run dpkg --configure -a and at
first espeak was working before I changed it to pico-generic. If I try
to install libao I get the message that no packages exist by that name.
What is the proper method for getting pico running on both the console
and X windows and allowing me to use both without rebooting? This is
really something that should be added to the debian-installer upon the
finishing of the installation about how you want your system setup as
why would someone only want speech working in one mode? Nick Gawronski

Hi, In reading what documentation exists on the festival synthesizer
it says that running a festival speech server is not very secure would
using one of the other software synthesizers work better then festival
with speech-dispatcher and speechd-up other then espeak? I think it
might be better in the debian-installer to include speech-dispatcher
and speechd-up as I found the speech is quicker and it can speak a lot
more items like things then espeakup. Nick Gawronski

What would it take for someone to write the proper documents on how
to get either festival and pico running and how to switch between
synthesizers on a system level?
Well, time, simply?
