asterisk users - Jul 2010 - app_swift.c:338 engine: Failed to set voice

Hello.

I'm trying to set TTS with Cepstral and Swift but can't get it to work.
I get this error when testing it:


    -- <SIP/101-00000000> Playing 'welcome.gsm' (language
'es')
    -- Executing [702 at local-calls:3] Swift("SIP/101-00000000",
"Hello this is ceptral") in new stack
[Jul 28 18:29:16] NOTICE[5191]: app_swift.c:304 engine: Text to Speak : Hello
this is ceptral
[Jul 28 18:29:16] ERROR[5191]: app_swift.c:338 engine: Failed to set voice.

I'm using:

asterisk*CLI> core show version
Asterisk 1.6.1.18 built by root @ optimum-asterisk on a i686 running Linux on
2010-04-10 01:42:25 UTC


I googled around but, there isnt a real solution I could find. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advanced for your help.

Do you have cepstral installed and have the voice(s) registered ?
try: swift --voices

assuming swift is installed an a valid voice is registered,
what happens when you type: swift "Test Message" -o /tmp/file.wav

is /tmp/file.wav created ?  does it play ?

what is the output of: grep ^[a-z] /etc/asterisk/swift.conf

somewhere should say "voice=X".  Is that voice installed as per the 
above "swift --voices" command ?

also, if you're going to be dialing digits with swift, you'll probably 
run into detection issues unless you use my patch at
