To change voices in either espeakup or piespeakup:

See the file list in:

/usr/lib/arm_-linux-gnueabi/espeak-data/voices/!v

Note that to get there you will have to escape the ! in !v, like this:

cd /usr/lib/arm_-linux-gnueabi/espeak-data/voices/\!v

Then to change the voice to, for example 'f3', change the VOICE
directive in /etc/default/piespeakup to:

VOICE=en+f3

or preserve whatever you have before the +
