Hi Glen,
I think Arch requires PulseAudio for GNOME and I think gnome-speech-dispatcher
and espeak use PulseAudio by default. Since I've never worked with it before,
I don't want to configure away. That way, I once configured a system to death.
I also intend to use Skype, at least occasionally. :)
I've just seen, that the jack modules for pulseaudio depend on JACK2, which
might turn out nasty...
TTFN,
Jeanette
