and where you attached the sound card?  |
USB sound card dongly thing.
(To the only port on the device..
)
(edit: Missed the bold part -
> Yeah, thats the thing... sshing into the Kindle using USB wasn't such a bright idea, when the command you are testing produces a sound output, that has to be checked with the usb sound card dongle thats - at that point not connected to the device.
So I removed *usb cable* and attached *soundcard dongle* and input the commands in kterm instead. Genius.
And yes - that worked. Heard the TTS sound output, could use it with different languages... - So the issue is related to privilege escalation on the kindlet itselft. )
I'll wait for additional feedback. If no one else is having problems getting the .azw2 to work - I'll downgrade>jailbreak>upgrade my Kindle again - maybe...
For now - using the shell command I could listen to the german TTS voice - and, lets just say, its no Ivona..
(but then the install package was only a few MB, so I saw that one coming..
).
But then - its miles better than Amazons own approach of *beeping* into your ear with intensity on every page change...
