It could be a bug, I never used talk.

If the 'Connection' is 'refused' then either the firewall is set to DROP or 
nothing is listening, suggesting that the subprocess from xinetd failed.

What do you see from netstat -plut as root?

Is there anything in /var/log/messages or any other likely logs?

It seems you can run these xinetd /usr/sbin/in.* things standalone.  Assuming 
that there is an in.talk the same way there is an in.tftp, try running it in 
a console standalone and look for errors.  If you don't see any, try a 
netstat -plut and see if the standalone guy is listening.
