Starting with version 0.7.1-14 this version is depreciated! The Mojo app now shows you the default audio channel and you can set is with the icon in the lower left corner. There is also a test button to test the selected audio channel and the service.

Hi,
I have my PRE3 connect to my BT car audio while driving. The most time I listen to the Radio, as a Result I do not get the speech output of Navit as it goes to the BT audio channel by default.
My target was to change this to get the Navit announcements from the PRE3 speaker.
Where we can change this?
The audio target is specified in the file: /var/etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/espeak-generic.conf
In line 23 you find a long command line:
"echo \'$DATA\' | /media/cryptofs/apps/usr/palm/applications/org.webosinternals.speechd/bin/speak --path=/media/cryptofs/apps/usr/palm/applications/org.webosinternals.speechd/share --stdin --stdout -v $VOICE -s $RATE -a $VOLUME -p $PITCH $PUNCT | aplay -D navigation"
The interesting part is at the end of this line. The parameter -D navigation specified the audio skin to use.
If you look into the pulse audio definition in webOS you will find the following skins:
You can try them if you change the parameter navigation to one of the other skins.Code:# define sinks for virtual devices, apps should write to these # since these will be used to implement policy management load-module module-null-sink sink_name=palerts description="high priority alert virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pnotifications description="notification virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pfeedback description="tactile feedback virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pringtones description="ringtone virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pmedia description="media sound virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pflash description="flash virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pnavigation description="navigation services virtual sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pvoicedial description="voice dialling prompts" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pvoip description="voip sink" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pdefaultapp description="all other applications should use this" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=peffects description="sink for special effects played when other sounds are turned off via ringer switch" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pDTMF description="sink for DTMF tones to be rendered on" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pcalendar description="sink for calendar alerts to be rendered on" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=palarm description="sink for alarm alerts to be rendered on" load-module module-null-sink sink_name=pvvm description="sink for visual voice mail"
This are the 2 that I found best, both uses the internal speaker when connected to a BT device and do not stop the music that is playing:
feedback: You get the the volume of the alert/system signal
voip: You get the volume of the hand free phone level
You need to reboot when you have changed the setting in the config file. You need to remove and reinstall speech dispatcher app if you mess up the config files.
Happy hacking
