Subject: [ 142/153] speakup: lower default software speech rate

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@...-lyon.org>

commit cfd757010691eae4e17acc246f74e7622c3a2f05 upstream.

Speech synthesis beginners need a low speech rate, and trained people
want a high speech rate.  A medium speech rate is thus actually not a
good default for neither.  Since trained people will typically know how
to change the rate, better default for a low speech rate, which
beginners can grasp and learn how to increase it afterwards

This was agreed with users on the speakup mailing list.
