I can hardly answer, not being an Arch user.

However, in the list of files shipped in the espeakup
package for Arch:
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/espeakup/
I see that there are files named:
/usr/lib/systemd/system/espeakup.service
and also a configuration file:
/usr/lib/modules-load.d/espeakup.conf

I'd have a look at the latter.
