The problem does seem to be related to portaudio.
I have rebuilt espeak against portaudio v18 (it currently uses v19), and got 
espeak to speak without too many hiccups.
I have tested it with orca, while navigating apps and webpages and listening 
for longer periods, without any crashes.
Every so often there appears to be a very short stutter at the beginning of a 
sentence, when espeak hasn't spoken for a while.

Please try my rebuilt packages at my PPA:

Any feedback is very welcome.
