Hi.

I
thought you will just have them set to on, once for ever, while most people
will
have them off (default).

        I agree, one won't need to access them often. However, how does one
turn them on if they get turned off, either by a format, loss of data, or
reinstallation of Rockbox, or when buying a new unit? Would it be possible
to have a shortcut key (like menu+on+right arrow or something for the player
units) to turn the speech on and off? Alternatively, could we do it through
a configuration file of some kind? That is, could I edit a configuration
file from the PC to make the speech turn on?

Here it comes again, the struggle for the most prominent menu positions...
Glenn, this may be a feature you'd like to see at the top, the very majority
will never use it.
But the configurable menus are on the way, if I read the indications
properly.
