Hello,
quote of a message in the Slint mailing list from Aiyumi Moriya (in CC):

In openjtalk.conf there is no setting of rate and volume, however the open_jtalk
command (output attached) allows to set the volume in dB and the speech speed
rate.
would it be possible to convey from speech-dispatcher these settings?
Cheers,
Didier
