Hi, me again, I have an issue with espeak in setting a new language. I asked already and you told me the command "espeak -vit" works fine for you.
On my q.bo when writing that command, first thing is that the cursor goes the line below the command and it stayed there for many minutes. If I click again on return, I get this error message:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ espeak -vit

Thanks a lot for your support!
Hi Giancarlo,
the Alsa errors are fine dont worry, this is because is trying to connect with the Rpi3 Sound Card instead our Q.board sound Card.
This is an example of eSpeak command. If you want to use Qbo in Italian you need to change the language into the Qbotalk.py file ( pico2wave).
speak = "espeak -ven+f3 "" + text_to_speech + "" --stdout | aplay -D convertQBO"
