6.1 upgrade solved audio problem, but espeak still doesn't work

[Mayuresh <mayuresh%acm.org@localhost>]

On 60 i386, intel audio hardware as described in the following thread,
audio wasn't working on 6.0.

After upgrading to 6.1, mplayer has started working, with default oss
device, but espeak text to speech converter still doesn't work.

I don't find options in espeak to override audio driver etc.

Dumping espeak output to wav file and playing with mplayer doesn't work.
There is no sound produced.

Redirecting espeak output to stdout and in turn to /dev/audio0 only
produces some noise.

Any leads to get espeak work?

espeak worked on my previous hardware with 6.0/i386 and an older version
of intel audio hardware. (Don't have details of old audio hardware now.)
