Unless you are using gnome, you don't need pulseaudio, if this is the
case maybe I can help, as this is what I have. Now I use hardware
speech, but I have used software speech before, using speechd-up and
speech-dispatcher.

No one has written such an interface yet.

I wonder why it's always an uncle. :-
hi
Hmm. I think I get it now. So for bluetooth, you need to know the
bluetooth address. Can you not simply select the bluetooth device in,
say, gnome's bluetooth settings or in mate's and brltty will pick up on
it? No rich uncles sadly. I'm not sure if I can get a government agency
to buy me anythi

Not quite.
auto is just for detecting the driver. If you specify auto for the driver then
brltty will try the vario
hi
Got it. So using the default of "auto" will use the first braille
display connected, whether it's usb, bluetooth or serial? Sorry for my
ignorance, I've never used a braille display with brltty and would like
to eventually get one to test with.
Thanks

I don't mind helping you in the slightest. My main problem is that every
time I think I have it, something messes up and I have to go back to the
drawing board. I'm determined to fix this if at all possible. Brltty is
a fantastic software project and it needs more attention from the open
source
I'm trying to configure something, I really don't care what, but something as a
console screen reader. Espeakup and other things seem to conflict with
pulseaudio, and gives me errors. Ditching pulseaudio hasn't worked out for me,
so it's my understanding that brltty is a solution. I'm just try
Why are you trying to do that? There are better alternatives, such as
speakup, or if you like emacs emacspeak.

I get that. I'm heavily involved in my church as well. But to answer your
question, I'm not using a braille display. I want to use brltty as a speech

For a braille screen reader, all the defaults tend to be all you need. The
exception to this is spcifying the braille device if it's Bluetooth or serial
