ubuntu mait help

[Hank Smith, and Seeing-eye dog Iona]

Hello I tried that.
as well as all of the instructions people have been suggesting
and I still can't get it to talk once the drum sound happens.
it is unmuted as well so sound is working.
should I look in to yet another distro?
I really want to use ubuntu mait.
sense sonar and my machine don't play nice.
Hank
