Hi Enrico,

I'm currently working on Speech Dispatcher backend for Orca.  This
bypasses the Gnome Speech layer completely.  Since Speech Dispatcher
offers several speech synthesizers not supported by Gnome Speech, this
may be essential for some people and the Orca -> Gnome Speech -> Speech
Dispatcher -> synthesizer aproach has inherent problems.  This might
solve your problem too.

Please, see also the common "TTS API" draft at
http://www.freebsoft.org/tts-api.  This is a common effort of Free
Desktop and FSG.

Best regards, Tomas
