Yes, the speakup on the hostsystem, in this case your ArchLinux box, is 
used, and no speakup support in the guest and virtualized BSD system is 
present. That means the BSD is accessible because the Linux host has 
speech or / and braile support enabled.

I think the question was, if BSD does support speakup or braille itself, 
so it can be installed natively and not only virtualized.

I'd be also interested in native speech or braille support in BSD, but 
as far I can find out via Google there is no BSD distribution that has 
brltty, speakup, or what ever  included which we know from Linux 
systems.

Cheers,
