You have to make sure that the unicode.ttf symlink in the SecondLife 
directory points to a font file that

    * is actually present on your computer at the given path
    * provides the unicode sections you want to use/display

On gentoo, for example, I had to replace the default link target 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/kochi/kochi-gothic.ttf with 
/usr/share/fonts/kochi-substitute/kochi-gothic-subst.ttf (provided by 
the media-fonts/kochi-substitute ebuild). You can use ln -sf to change 
the symlink's target.

There were several threads on 
http://forums.secondlife.com/forumdisplay.php?f=263 about voice, and 
Adamas Carter compiled a text file from his (and maybe others') most 
useful instructions there, available at 
http://www.adamascarter.com/extras/sl_voice_linux.txt

For me, the combination ALSA+ESD did get it to run without any 
configuration changes --  but the exact way to get this working might be 
dependent on both, hardware and distribution, it seems.

cheers
