Thank you for your report. As I said, this is my first Perl script (and 
the first on VG), so it's likely going to be buggy.

 From your report though, I see:

17:33:27:750 CRIT SNDCACHE xen4.tyv       VoiceGlue::__ANON__('connect: 
Conexi\x{c3}\x{b3}n rehusada at
   /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8...') called at

That makes me think you didn't launch Festival in server mode.

Please try with this command: "festival --server" from a shell. I didn't 
looked for a good way to have it  run as a startup service (at least on 
Ubuntu).


Also, I forgot to mention that the "ssml-mode" must be loaded by 
festival in order to work.

This can be obtained inserting:

(require 'speech-dispatcher)

in /etc/festival.scm or ~/.festivalrc or other files festival loads at 
startup.

If you had inserted that command, try to remove it and see if Festival 
then loads (at least in interactive mode). If you didn't insert it, then 
it's unlikely that Festival stopped working due to the freebsoft files, 
since they wouldn't be loaded (so it must be something else).

Thanks for reporting this (I'll add it to the README).
