I tested the same with another SD module, and it must be indeed a problem with SD and the Espeak module. Switching to 
Espeak-generic works.
However: This happens only in brltty with SD, all other apps I use with SD are OK (SBL, Speakup, Yasr and speechd-el, 
the interface to Emacs). So I think the brltty team should have some thoughts about this too.
BTW.: Typing:
brltty -h
causes the crash too.
