 Replying to [comment:4 garycmartin]:

 > If you run top in Terminal after the clock fails to speak you will see
 the hung espeak process ticking away, this is what is causing the
 subsequent issue. If you killall espeak, and then resume Clock activity
 the face will correctly draw.

 That's right!


 > I find espeak run from the terminal will lock up just the same after a
 hand full of trys, either part way through speach, or at the end of
 speech, just like from Clock.

 Well, I tried espeak with "this is a nice little machine but very
 underpowered" on the XO-1/F14/os22, 10 times and proved me wrong :-)
 Though once it did lock on "hello"!...
