That should be no problem. I was able to run both speakup and orca on a headless guest using vrdp. It was a bit sluggish, but that shouldn't be a big deal if all you're doing is testing. You can connect to it with both the Microsoft rdp client on a windows box, and rdesktop on a gnu/linux box. However, be aware that once you start rdesktop, it grabs total keyboard access, and the only way I know of to get back out when using it with the virtualbox vrdp server is to halt the guest. Good luck. Though I use debian here happily, I think it would be great if speakup got put back into ubuntu.
