espeak is doing something weird with the sound output, but you can avoid it by using
Code:
espeak --stdout | aplay
. This will respect the volume control of the N900.

Moreover, if you add & at the end (yes, you need & not just &), this will be run in the background, and navit will not freeze while speaking. So I would use:
Code:
echo '%s' | espeak -ven+m2+croak --stdout | aplay &
