problem with espeak

[AN]

Is anyone successfully using espeak?  I have the following installed:

espeak-1.46.02_1               A software speech synthesizer
/usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/libespeak.so.1.1.46
/usr/local/lib/libespeak.a
/usr/local/lib/libespeak.so
/usr/local/lib/libespeak.so.1
/usr/local/lib/libespeak.so.1.1.46
ls -l /usr/local/share/espeak

All sound is working normally, however when I try espeak "This is a test" 
nothing is heard.  Thanks in advance for any help.
