Hi,

I only use Ubuntu gnome-shell desktop GUI with Orca master but out of curiosity I installed espeakup with sudo apt-get install espeakup.

With Control+Alt+3 I launch a console and was surprised to have speech without doing any extra. I was asked to login and then to type my password. Espeakup read a welcome message.

David, were you able to get this working using Jude's tips?

    sysctl enable espeakup && sysctl start espeakup
    may help.
