Hi Ken,
In that case, Michael's steps or my confused list of steps should get you
running with speakup.

Sorry replied to the wrong one. I do get speech when I do that.

Hi Ken,
Do you get speech if you do
Spd-say "hello"
I had this problem with Raspbian and the only way around was to disable hdmi.
Setting the audio output to headphones did not work or rather, it worked only
once.

It is already running if you use the newest rasbion. My problem is I have
checked all you mention and the two services are running. I have even tried to
restart them and still get no speech out. According to the post about the
December rasbion speakup should work out of the box I guess I can just
uninstall it all and see if I can start over and get it running. I was trying
to figure out why the default rasbion is not working even though the espeak is
working and the two services are running.

Hello Pranav,
Try this:
sudo modprobe speakup_soft
That should load two modules:
speakup_soft
And:
speakup
The first depends on the second, so the second will get automatically loaded at
the same time.
Do this at any time:
lsmod | grep speakup
And if you get results, then the modules are already loaded.
To get speakup_soft to load at boot-time, create the file:
/etc/modules-load.d/speakup.conf
And put this line in it:
speakup_soft
I usually put a blank line or two before and after.
Then when the module is loaded, you can:
sudo apt-get install espeakup
And assuming you have libespeak-dev installed, then you should get speech.

Hi Ken and all,
How do I install speakup on the raspberry pi? I cannot tell if it has
been compiled into the kernel. I need some steps to start with and
then I can see what happens.
