Thanks Mike. I have experienced the stuttering so know what you are talking
about. Thanks for updating the page. I'll follow those instructions and will
update the list if I have problems.

You need to follow the instructions exactly. Piespeakup will NOT work with a
soundcard but will work with either the headphone jack or HDMI audio.
It will give you console screen-reader speakup with no stuttering.
In the page:
http://www.raspberryvi.org/stories/stuttering.html
There is a link to a podcast of me demonstrating the stuttering and the fixed
audio with my OMX code and piespeakup.

Hello
Again here are some quick start instructions for the new build method for the
on all Pis.
First, it seems the armv7 Arch image is broken, but the armv6h image will work
Foundation.
To install on either Arch or Raspbian:
OMX code:
wget http://www.raspberryvi.org/Downloads/ilctts-1.0.0.tar.gz
tar zxvf ilctts-1.0.0.tar.gz
cd ilctts-1.0.0
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
Piespeakup:
wget http://www.raspberryvi.org/Downloads/piespeakup-1.0.0.tar.gz
tar zxvf piespeakup-1.0.0.tar.gz
cd piespeakup-1.0.0
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe speakup_soft
sudo systemctl enable piespeakup
sudo systemctl start piespeakup
On Arch you will need to add this line to the bottom of /boot/config.txt :
dtparam=audio=on
And note the word 'Downloads' in the above wgets has a capital D.
To change from the 3.5mm jack to HDMI, edit:
/etc/systemd/system/piespeakup.conf
And change --device=local to --device=hdmi
(I can't test that bit because i do not have an HDMI TV or monitor).
