Hi!

Regretfully most of the distros ignore the start of the main component of  
the new KDE TTS system (speech-dispatcher). You have to enable its  
automatic start manually.

hints on this can be found in Jovie documentation (just press F1) and on  
this page:

http://userbase.kde.org/Jovie

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Yuri
