If you don't start orca is speakup speaking?

Yes, Speakup speaks under the text console (CTRL+ALT+F1 etc). Orca does not 
speak under the MATE desktop.

It looks like it's the pulse audio bug back again.

Yes that is my conclusion also. I thought that this particular bug had been 
squashed years ago
Sadly, this bug is still relevent.


Basically, if orca is speaking, speakup won't speak!!! :)

The only way i have managed to achieve is by setting speechd.conf to use ALSA, 
but I do not want to have to reset speechd.conf each time I want to s between 
the two Screen Readers. Is there a better way?

Not that I know of.
