It speaks up the word along with the chirpy sound where as if I play an audio file using mplayer and instructing mplayer to use pulse, the output is clean and clear. That led me to try mplayer with -ao alsa and I get the very same chirpy sound. So it looks like apps that are trying to access the alsa device directly are running into problems. I don't think this is a speech-dispatcher problem then. Must be something wrong with the alsa driver. (But I wonder why. Pulse internally is talking to the very same alsa device) Thank you for your help. Regards, Ritesh -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf RESEARCHUT - http://www.researchut.com "Necessity is the mother of invention."
