This ties into the larger issue of untangling audio in Ubuntu. The latest release of portaudio has some problems with the alsa & pulse backend, and this is what breaks espeak. But what to do? We can compile espeak natively to use pulse rather than using portaudio, but until/unless pulse becomes the default backend, this does not make sense to do on a distribution basis. I think the short term goal is to make portaudio work properly again, which will fix this for (or hopefully much before) Karmic. Hence, I suggest this issue be tied to or otherwise noted in portaudio as well.
