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



I’ve managed to make it work on  my Mac. My issue was exactly as you’ve described on your 2017 Mac. 

If I add 
(Sets emacspeak-auditory-icon-function ‘emacspeak-play-auditory-icon)
In init.el
It works the same as it does on my arch machine. I’ve been using this fix for a few days and haven’t noticed any issues. 

Maybe this will work on your 2017 Mac too and it’s not an m1 issue.

Hi,

The behaviour you're getting with emacspeak-auditory-icon-function is quite similar to what I observed in a different environment (in Emacspeak on Debian on UserLAnd on Android). In my case, the solution was as simple as installing alsa-utils, but I'm not at all familiar with macOS, so I don't know if that will help you at all.

All the best,

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

Hi all,
First time posting on the mailing list. Please let me know if
I'm
doing something wrong :)

I recently installed emacs/emacspeak on my m1 macbook air using
the
method outlined below:
brew tap d12frosted/emacs-plus
brew install emacs-plus@xxxxxxxxxxx --with-no-titlebar

then unpacked the latest emacspeak tar.bz2 from the website and
ran

make config
make
Then added to init.el (load-file
"~/.emacs.d/emacspeak/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el")
(load-file "~/.emacs.d/emacspeak/lisp/mac-voices.el")
(dtk-set-rate 500 t)
(setq emacspeak-play-program "/opt/homebrew/bin/play") ;;was
nill
without this being set manually

This setup allows me to use the function
emacspeak-play-auditory-icon
to hear the icons. but whenever I do
emacspeak-sounds-select-theme and
enter pan-chimes theme's folder this doesn't make the theme work
as
expected. No errors just nothing.

can anybody let me know what I'm doing wrong. I suspect that I'm
loading the themes in wrong somehow or I haven't got something
set that I need to. But I can't figure it out.
Best

Jimmy

I've had this issue too on a 2017 model mac since I installed emacspeak over a year ago, auditory icons work fine on my raspberrypi however.
Also new line and backspace sounds work on my Mac but not many others
