[Bug 1792300] Re: Chromium Speech Synthesis Not Working
I can confirm this doesn't work in chromium, neither snap (tested in 19.10) nor deb (tested in 18.04). Note that with the deb, I'm seeing the following message: INFO:CONSOLE(765) "speechSynthesis.speak() without user activation is no longer allowed since M71, around December 2018. See https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5687444770914304 for more details" Lonnie, your CardTrick page will need to be updated to speak only upon user activation. This isn't the root cause of the problem though, speech synthesis doesn't work in chromium even if user activated. ** Summary changed: - Chromium Speech Synthesis Not Working + Speech Synthesis Not Working ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792300 Title: Speech Synthesis Not Working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1792300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm that this does not work in any version of Ubuntu. For example, it does not work in 16.04, 19.04, and it even doesn't work via the snap package installation forced by Ubuntu 19.10: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/call-for-testing-chromium-browser-deb-to-snap-transition/11179 If you need to test this, go to any of the articles listed here: http://www.howtoadvice.com/ If you open an article in Firefox, the browser will read the article to you. If you open an article in Chromium, it will not. ** Tags added: snap -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792300 Title: Chromium Speech Synthesis Not Working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1792300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1792300] Re: Chromium Speech Synthesis Not Working
Sorry for the lack of timely feedback. Is this still an issue with the latest chromium version in Ubuntu 16.04 ? Does it work on 18.04 or newer Ubuntu releases, by any chance? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792300 Title: Chromium Speech Synthesis Not Working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1792300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
