Description claire robinson 2011-09-28 10:35:57 CEST 
This bug has been created to allow an update candidate for konq-plugins to be validated. Please refer to bug 2814 for more details. Further testing may be required.

Jovie and speech-dispatcher don't work well together. Speech-dispatcher either isn't started by Jovie or isn't recognised by it. No voices are available to select unless speech-dispatcher is started as a normal user before starting Jovie it seems.

Comment 1 John Balcaen 2011-09-28 11:58:51 CEST 
it is not a bug in fact ...
Jovie is not supposed to start speed dispatcher since since one is supposed to be run as « daemon ».
However we can't set a *default* configuration for example to run speed dispatcher as root (via the /etc/init.d/ functionnality)  because i can't ensure if the user is going to use alsa or pulseaudio (in the second case from the test i did when trying to configure/fix jovie during pre mageia 1 period speed it was not working) 
So in summary you just need to apply the README.urpmi i wrote especially to explain how to use jovie and configure speech dispatcher

Comment 2 claire robinson 2011-09-28 12:00:44 CEST 
Yes, I did that John. They still didn't play well together.

I will test more thoroughly and report back.
Comment 3 John Balcaen 2011-09-28 12:05:32 CEST 
you did launch manually speed-dispatcher under your user too i guess ?
Comment 4 claire robinson 2011-09-28 18:20:40 CEST 
Yes, that's when it did work.

Comment 5 John Balcaen 2011-10-01 19:19:24 CEST 
Ok so since it's working as expected as soon as you launch speed-dispatcher & this the way it's intend to work (aka the README.urpmi available in jovie ) i'm closing it as invalid.
