Multi-lingual speech is broken by default

Created attachment 248446 [details] [review] Use the user's default locale if no "family" is specified for the default voice Server: speech-dispatcher 0.8 Components: espeak, cicero With the default untouched user-settings.conf Orca doesn't speak Russian even if the locale is configured properly. The problem is that the speechd interface ignores the locale settings (i.e. LANG) by default and can be solved either by adding an empty (!) "family" {} parameter for the "default" voice of the user-settings.conf, or by modifying the speechdispatcherfactory.py with the attached patch.
Thanks for the patch! Committed to master: https://git.gnome.org/browse/orca/commit/?id=87a93ead5335916e1e65b921b33d3f09a6010eac
