I wonder why we don't configure festival to make it work with pulseaudio.

Running festival with our package, while music is playing, yields:

[mclasen@localhost ~]$ festival --tts text
Linux: can't open /dev/dsp

This can be fixed by adding the following lines to /etc/festival/siteinit.scm:

(Parameter.set 'Audio_Command "aplay $FILE")
(Parameter.set 'Audio_Method 'Audio_Command)
(Parameter.set 'Audio_Required_Format 'snd)
