Mappero will read out the instruction as it is displayed on the screen.

Like many mappero users, I felt espeak integration with Mappero is a must have. So here's a package to enable the same. It's based on Speech server (http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Speech_Server).
Pre-requisite: Install mappero 3.1 and espeak-cli from maemo repository.
1. Copy sugar-speechd to /usr/bin/
2. Copy org.laptop.Speech.service to /usr/share/dbus-1/services/
3. Install maemo-mapper_3.1-os2008_armel.deb (http://applenorange.in/maemo-mapper_...2008_armel.deb) as root.
Note: Since the maemo-mapper package was exceeding the forum attachment limit, I uploaded it to a server I manage.

What might I have done wrong (I'm a newbie, so it's probably me missing something basic)

Yes, I tried that, and it works just fine. But Mappero is still silent

chmod +x /usr/bin/sugar-speechd
To verify if speechd is configured properly, execute the following at python prompt:
>> import dbus
>> bus = dbus.SessionBus()
>> espeak_object = bus.get_object('org.laptop.Speech', '/org/laptop/Speech')
>> espeak_object.SayText("say hello world")
At this point, you should hear N900 speak "say hello world".
