Chromium gates the Web Speech API behind the --enable-speech-dispatcher switch on Linux and dlopens libspeechd.so.2 at runtime. The 22.08 Electron BaseApp does not ship libspeechd, and the sandbox blocks the speech-dispatcher socket and D-Bus name, so voice alerts silently no-op on the Flatpak build while working on the AppImage. Vendor libspeechd 0.11.5 (matching the version the BaseApp historically shipped on this runtime) into the Flatpak, expose xdg-run/speech-dispatcher and the SpeechDispatcher D-Bus name, and append the Chromium switch from the Electron main process so Cockpit can talk to the host's speech-dispatcher daemon. Also document the host-side deps next to the Flatpak download.
