I found espeak in extras and thought it would be cool to have it talk to people in the other room via ssh...

Problem is: I can make it output a wav file and play this file with mplayer, but I cannot make it talk without writing the output to a file. It should work like
espeak "Hello world"
but it needs
espeak -w file.wav "hello world" && mplayer file.wav
Is there something I'm missing?
