[Bug 1792300] Re: Chromium Speech Synthesis Not Working

2019-10-08 Thread Olivier Tilloy
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.

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:

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.

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?
