Forky installer speakup does not work after installation but orca does

Hi, I just installed Forky and noticed that orca comes up as normal 
after the installation in mate but if I try to access just the consoles 
I have no speech from speakup what so ever.  This should be fixed as 
that could really be a mess for some users and orca is not the best in 
terminal applications.  Nick Gawronski
