hi
Actually, I'm not sure what happened. It just started speaking. The
problem is that the espeak voice it's using isn't naturally monotonic.
It's using the default voice, which is more expressive than brltty is
making it. But that might just be a matter of supplying the right
parameters to it. Wou

Hi all,
I'm wondering what all needs to be configured to use brltty as a screen reader.
I"ve set the speech driver, or at least I think I have. I'm not sure
if I need to set it for espeak, or speech dispatcher. Like Kendell, it's
monotone when it speaks, but at this point, if i can get this co

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
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
screen reader.

Why are you trying to do that? There are better alternatives, such as
speakup, or if you like emacs emacspeak.

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
hi
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

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

Not quite.
auto is just for detecting the driver. If you specify auto for the driver then
brltty will try the vario
