Wfm <https://ptpb.pw/zjGm.png>. Initially there was an issue where its speech-dispatcher streams would cause a ton of static, but not having that issue now..

Seems that issue only occurs over my HDMI-audio output.

Edit: More finicky than this.
Edit2: There is a considerable amount of "noise" when first starting narration with this output, but that goes away.

Please add speech-dispatcher as an optdep.
