Hi Samuel,
This is voxin 3.4.
It has worked in other Debian based Linux distros, I have had these voices 
for some time now, so they should work.
It is odd that spd-say "testing" | aplay works, so Voxin is working.
Normally I can just install the 3.4 files and they find Orca.
Thanks.

Which voxin installer did you use? Did it mention integration with orca,
i.e. with speech-dispatcher? If it doesn't expose a speech-dispatcher
module, Orca will not find it. You need to be more explicit about what
installer you used, and most probably it's the provider of it that needs
to fix a script to set up a speech-dispatcher module up.
