tags 577217 patch fixed-upstream thanks Attached is a patch that updates the packaging to make speech-dispatcher use pulse by default instead of alsa. The idea was taken from upstream [1]. This would prevent the locking of audio devices from speech-dispatcher.
What would probably be better is to package a new version of speech-dispatcher from the 0.6.8~unofficial~rc2 release [2]. Ubuntu has already done so in lucid.
