From http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=10028 :

KSayIt uses natively Text-To-Speech systems like MBrola, any TTS system that can be \
controlled via a command line or any TTS system that is supported by the upcoming KDE \
TTS system (i.e. Festival).

Than, KSayIt is only a frontend for the KDE Text-to-Speech system. Have you try to \
use MBrola or Festival? Look also the interesting project called FreeTTS (this link \
is for the official docs) at http://freetts.sourceforge.net/docs/index.php 

"NAME
    freetts - exercise the FreeTTS synthesis sytem


DESCRIPTION
    The lib/freetts.jar contains a main entry point that allows a user to
    interactively control the FreeTTS synthesizer.  When invoked with no 
    arguments, freetts will read text from the command line and convert 
    the text to speech.  freetts can also be used to convert text from a 
    file to speech.  It includes options that allow you to redirect the 
    audio to file, as well as a number of metrics and debugging options."

Gianluca Varisco
