[Emacspeak] Re: auditory icon themes not working on m1 mac

[Jimmy B <jimmy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for all the emails! Here is an update on my issue that might 
give more information.

the default value of emacspeak-auditory-icon-function is 
emacspeak-serve-auditory-icon  on my system. When I change this 
value to emacspeak-play-auditory-icon, all my themes and icons 
work fine.

So I think my issue is either in emacspeak-serve-auditory-icon or 
in something it interacts with.

I'm not able to track the issue down further than this but maybe 
someone on here might point me in the right direction.

Thank you

Jimmy
