[Bug 773450] [NEW] sound preferences opens speech-dispatcher

[Elias K Gardner]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: speech-dispatcher

I just freshly installed 11.04 have been running Natty for a number of
months without this bug.

To Reproduce: Open sound preferences from the sound menu.

A blank terminal without the usual username at computer name prompt opens
and a choppy voice says "welcome ______ current desktop environment is
unity" (the blank is hard to hear but I think it is the nickname I gave
myself in the people nearby section of empathy. If I close the terminal
it opens and talks again. Under applications in sound preferences
speech-dispatcher shows. The voice can be silenced by muting speech-
dispatcher. I can end the process with system monitor and sometimes the
terminal spits out some information but I cannot close the terminal
without it reopening and speaking again.

As of yet I have found no way besides logging out to get rid of the
terminal window.
