Thanks for the offer to help, I'll take you up on it, see below.

Your guess is correct.

There are two goals for Emacspeak visavis Eldoc 

1. If eldoc auto triggers a message, and if emacspeak were to speak it
   in every case, it gets annoying fast and you cant do what you're
   doing.

The advantage with visually showing the message is that the eye can
   choose to ignore it; the ear cannot ignore something
   spoken. Emacspeak tries to somewhat ameliorate this by speaking
   notifications just on one ear, but it's still too much in the case
   of eldoc.

   2. Complementary requirement; you want to hear that message because
      it does have helpful info; so you want it spoken "on demand".

      Solution:

   Emacspeak produces a very short auditory icon to
      indicate that eldoc is available at point as you move through
      the code; the experienced user can then hit a key and here it.

      Here is the implementation; it's pretty short, and you might be
      able to advice me (no defadvice pun  intended)
      See function emacspeak-speak-eldoc
      at https://github.com/tvraman/emacspeak/blob/master/lisp/emacspeak-advice.el#L801
