I think the issue that you're having with KTTS is due to the fact that you don't have a speaker for festival installed. This would result in no talkers listed like you described. I just reinstalled KTTS on KDE 4.4 and can confirm that it does work, but it didn't work until I installed a speaker for festival. I installed festival-rablpc16k for my speaker, there are a few others in Arch's extra repositories. My suggestion is to do a search for festival in fedora repos and install one of the speakers.
I mentioned in the userbase page that you need to have a voice installed to use festival, but didn't provide enough details on this subject. I'll revise this to prevent other users from having difficulties in using KTTS.
I'll see if I can get in contact with a developer to make a speaker for festival also a dependency for installing KTTS.
I hope this resovles your issue.

that's not my case. I've several speakers, and Festival works fine from the command line. Besides, espeak should also work with ktts, and it does not, though it also works from the command line.

I made a post on the KTTS discussion page. It seems it should work as nothing has changed for me with the upgrade to SC 4.4. You'll have to talk to a fedora dev or compile it from source.

I am the one who reported on the ktts userbase page.
I also have a number of festival voices installed, namely:
festvox-awb-arctic-hts-0.20061229-16.fc12.noarch festvox-slt-arctic-hts-0.20061229-16.fc12.noarch
Both festival and espeak work on the command line here, but not using kttsd.
As I had mentioned on the userbase page, kttsd is not and never is running. It seems that it will not start at all and it is impossible to choose any voices in the setup, as none are ever listed, despite being installed.

It sounds as though you have both come across a Fedora bug, then, so you should both post your info on the same bug report.
