Thanks David. I've got sound on ubuntu 17.4 Workstation 12 now. But yep, but orca doesn't start for me either. Was just curious to try. I don't use Ubuntu desktop that often but will do an in place upgrade from 16.4 another time. Regards. Chris Turner On 21/09/2017 13:28, David Mehler wrote:

Hi,

No, the drum sound is still in there. If your using VMware workstation add this line to your virtual machine's .vmx file:

sound.virtualDev = "hdaudio"

Maybe they have removed those?

I tried this last night as well. But I didn't get the drums sound. Will have another go later.

Hi Dave,

super+alt+s is the gnome shortcut. Unity uses ctrl+s as far as i know.

Hello,

Has anything changed in the latest Ubuntu 17.04 that effects speech?

I'm trying to get Ubuntu 17.04 64 bit going in a virtual machine workstation11 vm on my windows 10 host. Prior to this with 14.04 and 16.04 I waited until the drum prompt then did alt+super+s which got me speech.

In 17.04 I do hear the drum prompt which I love by the way, and I do the alt+super+s and nothing no speech.

Any ideas?

Thanks. Dave.
