You can disable the service with systemctl disable espeakup, or
something similar depending on your OS. (I'm using Arch.) Enabling
or disabling the the service will start or stop the process and
will mark it so that it boots up in that state. So if espeakup is
enabled, it will boot talking, and will keep quiet if you disable
it.
If your pi isn't using systemd then you'll have to look up the
command to disable the service. Sorry, haven't used raspbian in a
little while.

Hi folks===========================================================
Is there a way of installing speakup so that it's ready to go
but doesn't
come up talking,
then enable it with some simple command, and disable it again
simply?
One can of course just hit the pause/break key to kill/reenliven
it,
but as my wife will often use the pi, it'd be civilized not to
have it come
up yacking.
Thanks much
