E-Speak Error
 
I installed espeak on my system and I get the error below when I run.

I am running Arch Linux.

Any thoughts ? :scratch:

I found a work around for this issue. I send the output to standard out then to aplay. It is a bit of a pain but after a couple of weeks of searching this is the best I came up with. :scratch:

:banghead:

Sample -->

Quote:

espeak "Espeak does not like my new Arch Linux set up" --stdout | aplay
If anybody has any other suggestions I would love to hear them. :study:
