Hi, I tried SetSec and was still getting problems. So, it got me wondering how it could still be starting with the British English voice... After a lot of searching, changing settings, and more than a little cussing (lol), I figured out there was 2 symlinks to espeakup@.service. One was the correct en-us call, but apparently the other was from when I was using uppercase %I. The link file was something like espeakup@en\x... So, I removed that, had to do it manually cause systemctl wouldn't touch it, and now everything is great again. Thanks for the help Storm On Sat, Nov 02, 2013 at 07:09:24PM +0000, Xyne wrote:

You can include "RestartSec=15" in the "[Service]" section of the service file to work around the "request repeated too quickly" error.
To correctly resolve this you will need to determine why it is exiting and adjust accordingly, e.g. by adding dependency and ordering entries to the service file (e.g. "After=..." in the "[Unit]" section).
