emacspeak aparently normal, but no sound

[fredm@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,
I'm trying to use emacspeak in debian testing.
I installed emacspeak, festival and eflite.

festival is outputting sound normally. I
test with (SayText "hello").

I make a
dpkg-reconfigure emacspeak
and turn eflite the default sound server.

emacspeak starts normally. I can
use it. but no sound. just a unusual
beep when changing paragraphs.

I tried to upgrade emacspeak+eflite+festival
from testing to unstable with
apt-get -t unstable install emacspeak festival eflite

but the problem continues.

nothing is write in /var/log/ when I start
emacspeak

I changed the variable 'Audio_Method
from linux16audio to Audio_Command
in festival, because linux16audio is
freezing my machine.

here is my instalation:

# dpkg -l festival eflite emacspeak
