Speech Deamon can be configured on several levels. There is a configuration file where permanent settings are stored, but user and applications can also change the majority of parameters on-fly by calling Speech Deamon functions. The third level of configuration can't be changed and it's given by the capabilities of each output device (each output module for each output device reports it's capabilities when it's loaded into Speech Deamon).
We use DotConf for the permanent textfile-based configuration.
See speechd.conf

Other parts of this manual deal with the runtime configuration.
