It isn't GNOME speech that interfears with esd, but the software synthesizer that you are using. If you are using Festival, it is possible to make Festival cooperate with esd, however speech cannot be shut up when you need it to, and the speech overlaps, due to a bad buffering/festival esd client access problem. I am only guessing as to what the problem is exactly. I would suggest turning off system sounds in GNOME, thereby preventing esd from loading. It will save you more headaches in the future.
