The `+doubletalkDriver+` targets DoubleTalk LT-style serial devices. It does
not support the internal DoubleTalk PC ISA card.
USB hardware speech synthesizers are supported only when Linux exposes them as
a serial tty such as `+/dev/ttyACM0+` or `+/dev/ttyUSB0+`. USB-only TripleTalk
models with no tty device need a separate driver.
The `+dectalkUsbDriver+` autodetects the native Access Solutions DECtalk USB,
USB ID `+0dd0:2001+`. It requires PyUSB and a libusb backend and ignores the
serial device and baud-rate settings. From a source checkout, install the USB
dependencies with `+python3 -m pip install '.[dectalk_usb]'+`. A non-root
Fenrir process needs a local udev rule granting its account read/write access
to `+0dd0:2001+`; do not make the device world-writable. Other USB hardware
speech synthesizers are supported only when Linux exposes them as a serial tty
such as `+/dev/ttyACM0+` or `+/dev/ttyUSB0+`.

RPITalk gadget mode usually appears as `/dev/ttyACM0`; USB serial adapters
usually appear as `/dev/ttyUSB0`; built-in serial ports may be `/dev/ttyS0`.
The default baud rate is `9600`. `doubletalkDriver` targets
DoubleTalk LT-style serial devices, not the internal DoubleTalk PC ISA card.
USB TripleTalk devices work only if Linux exposes them as a serial tty such as
`/dev/ttyACM0` or `/dev/ttyUSB0`; USB-only models with no tty device need a

The `dectalkUsbDriver` autodetects the native Access Solutions DECtalk USB and
ignores both serial settings. It requires PyUSB and a libusb backend. From a
