Hi, I forgot to mention one more advantage of this solution: You can use speechd running in system mode for orca as well and don't need to start a seperate sd instance in the user session.
Have a look how the debian guys run speechd as user speechd, group audio. Then set export SPEECHD_ADDRESS=unix_socket:/var/run/speech-dispatcher/speechd.sock and change the socketpath in speechd.conf acording to that setting of the speechd_address. HTH.
