Binary package hint: festival

Just installed and configured the prey anti-theft software (http://preyproject.com), and received this crash. I believe that it was trying to speak the alert message.

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

ESD audio module in festival has been replaced with a PulseAudio module.

So I am closing this issue :-)
