I see you are using Pluto. There was a problem with the speak module in pluto a few years ago which produced exactly the symptoms you describe. Jonathan produced a new module to correct this and I'm sure this code was amended before the 32bit version of the module was produced so it shouldn't happen now. Maybe your speak module is corrupted, I suggest you ditch it and replace with the most recent 32bit module available from jonathan's website: http://home.clara.net/jsd/ upgrade page.
