Mike,
I'm glad to hear you've made so much progress. I've been quiet for exactly the
other reason. I had compiled up both a 3.6.9 and a 3.10.19? kernel both of
which were running stable on my Pi but with the latency issue. No matter what I
did in either kernel config, the latency issues remained, so I went on to
trying to find some other solution. Since, as you've pointed out, pulse audio
documentation is poor, I felt like I was chacing my tail with it. It appeared
you needed X or another graphical user interface to have it run, and then on my
debian system, I actually got it to run, but the trick to get it to run was to
add hooks into the pulse audio configuration to tell it to use the underlying
alsa system! So, that would be useless, I felt.
After that, I went to edit my espeakup.service file and add nice -11 or
something similar to see if preceeding the espeakup program would make it run
better. I did notice pulse audio has configurations for both niceness and real
time.
As soon as I touched that file and rebooted, all the stability left my system.
The Pi started the random lock up issues. I tried taking it out and rebooting.
No luck. Reimaged the card and put the kernels and modules back on there (both
sets at different times) - no luck. So even though I followed the same steps I
took before, I couldn't reproduce the results I had. Just craziness. I did and
do have speech-up compiled, but haven't gotten any further with it.
The point to all this is, I know there is a 3.10.x kernel floating out there
that is stable, but once I lost the ability to boot my system reliably and
couldn't reproduce the system after a few attempts, I changed the debian system
over to arch, so I no longer have the kernel source or I'd offer to send it
your way.
I guess this is as much an update on my end as anything, and a goodluck to you!

Subject: [raspberry-vi] Problem
Hello list,
I currently have a problem which I am struggling to solve with the new
Accessible Arch image.
The currently stable kernel source tree from the Foundation is 3.10.y.
Previously I had been working with 3.6.y.
Unfortunately there is an error making the kernel compilation fail which I
can't currently solve.
I may have to release the image with a 3.6.y kernel instead of 3.10.y.
I hope this will make little difference and I am hoping that a simple 'pacman
-Syu' will then get the newer kernel and not wipe out SpeakUp.
Mike
