I've looked at the code and the following is reality: you need to open ~/Library/Preferences/com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp.plist and remove the com.growl.Speech dictionary from the file.
you must then not ever click on any of the voices on the Growl Speech display's settings. If you do then it will use the selected voice and not listen to the speed setting in the Speech preference pane. by not selecting a voice (ignore the fact that it displays the default voice as selected) the display will make use of the settings on the Speech preference pane both for the voice and speed settings. the code committed for 1.2.1 was poorly done and there should have been a "use system default setting" option in the list, but like Chris says that won't be fixed in 1.2.x. It will however be fixed in 1.3. -rudy On Jul 22, 8:13 am, Bryan Smart <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi. > > When Growl speaks, the rate of speech is really slow. > > I saw in the 1.2.1 "What's New" that Growl should use the speed indicated by > the slider in the Speech prefs pane.
