nvda2speechd, let Windows programs talk through Speech dispatcher

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Boot the ISO and hit down once then enter, it should come up talking


If not, systemctl enable --startnow espeakup


I'm trying to work out why I'm getting a lot of things about SAPI, and 
if I need voices installed because I am going from a completely standard 
wine installation on a 64bit machine, yet it's flooding my terminal with 
a ton of voice list things about SAPI however so I'm unsure.


Do I need to install under wine the speechsdk and things or should 
nvda2speechd take care of that. It's establishing a connection, but...no 
luck
