Sound broken in speech synthesis
When starting the installer with Speech Synthesis. Failure happens straight from the beginning, before any UI is displayed. There's a whole bunch of error messages on the console, cf https://pastebin.com/ApxE9ASM
There was no problem with Kali 2021.3, the error started with 2021.4.
Also a comment from the reporter of the issue:
I believe either in 2021.2 or 2021.3, a bug where the speech-assisted install did not install Orca, the linux screen reader, was resolved. However, it was not resolved correctly, in the sense that there is no speech engine for Orca to speak through, that it knows of in any case. The solution is to run: sudo apt-get install espeak-ng speech-dispatcher-espeak-ng and reboot, so if those packages are included in the next version this bug is resolved but as it stands, this is currently broken. In that sense, it's broken in a similar but slightly different way to 2021.2 and before, where you had to manually install orca using apt in order to get a working screen reader.
