Package: festlex-ifd
Version: 2.0+debian0-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


After installing festlex-ifd and selecting italian as default language, if I try to use Festival with Asterisk (or if I run festival and execute the same command that Asterisk uses to generate audio from text, that is

(tts_textasterisk "prova 123 prova" 'file)(quit)

I get an error that states "SIOD ERROR: wrong type of argument to get_c_utt" and no audio data is sent back to asterisk for processing. If i use another language (English for example) Festival works.


Steps to reproduce:

apt install festlex-ifd (which installs also festival and other dependencies)

run festival as a server from command line so I can see the errors:

festival --server -b --language italian

then, try to execute a function that calls festival in Asterisk.

I get the error "SIOD ERROR: wrong type of argument to get_c_utt" in
festival and no audio is returned to Asterisk.


This happens also if I run festival not as a server, like this:

festival --language italian

And then enter the command (tts_textasterisk "prova 123 prova"
'file)(quit) at the prompt.

If I install festvox-kdlpc8k (american english language) and launch
festival without "--langauge italian" so that english is used, festival
works properly.
