Hi Geoff,
Can you install espeak-ng on Buster?
Perhaps it will be more reliable than espeak.

Samuel,
I know that I don't have anything interesting about my alsa config. I'd try
your new espeak packages but I'm on arm64. My bookworm system was built from
your modified debian installer.
I have just built a trixie arm64 machine today, if that would be more helpful.

Perhaps the following would also be worth trying:
Rebuild Espeakup with compiler optimizations turned off and with debug
symbols enabled. This might produce a beter gdb backtrace if you connect
to the process when it's failing to generate output. You might also need
to rebuild Espeak, though.

Thanks for this. It does not print any information when speaking stops. It
