I can confirm espeak is broken. I've tried on at least 3 computers with various hardware configurations - laptops, desktops, fast, slow, all 32-bit Jaunty.
Mostly, it plays super-duper fast (like, an entire sentence in a fraction of a second). On two computers, I received the following messages until I uninstalled bluez-alsa. bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111) bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111) And now, it plays a sentence, but it comes out so fast it's like just a tick. As posted elsewhere on the web, the wav generation appears to work, eg: #!/bin/sh espeak -w ~/.espk.wav "$1" aplay ~/.espk.wav rm ~/.espk.wav does work. -- Jaunty 64bit: Espeak looses some words. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/377060 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
