Festival - Text-to-Speech - Community Ubuntu Documentation
(via)You can take advantage of Text-To-Speech in Ubuntu by using a program called Festival. Festival doesn't work with ESD (the default sound mixer) or ALSA out of the box, so some changes are required to get it up and running.
This guide provides instructions on how to get Festival working on Ubuntu with ESD or ALSA.
If you don't use Festival with ESD, you will have to disable ESD in the Sounds preferences dialog. In that case, other multimedia applications won't be able to play audio at the same time.
