In order to use Speech Dispatcher with Festival (which is recommended), you
must have installed this package (or the packages it depends on) and have the
Festival server started.  To achieve the latter, you must start the server
by hand such as running

  festival --server

on a command line or in some script. If you want to run festival system wide,
please read its README.Debian which contains important (security) information
and how to create /etc/init.d/festival.

If Speech Dispatcher is running as a system service (which is not recommended
anymore) and started before the Festival server is started, you must run

  invoke-rc.d speech-dispatcher reload

to allow Speech Dispatcher to figure out that the previously unavailable
Festival server is now running.

And finally, you must tell Speech Dispatcher to use Festival for its output.
Change the following configuration options in
~/.config/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf:

  DefaultModule festival
  LanguageDefaultModule "en" "festival"
