SpeechRecognitionServer not found in Mavericks with applescript?
Right at      

/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/SpeechRecognition.framework/Versions/A/SpeechRecognitionServer.app


When it asks, click Browse and type command ⌘+shift ⇧+G, then paste the path in.

With that specific script there are a few errors (you'll need to get rid of the Âs with find and replace, and there is a comment after a line continuation character in else if voiceResponse is "pause music" or Â¬   -- &lt;callout id="code.osx-voice-automation.scpt.miscmusic"/&gt;). After doing that I got it to run on my machine.

Oh, and if you're wondering how I found it - mdfind is Spotlight's Terminal interface, and it shows hidden files, so when I ran mdfind SpeechRecognitionServer it came up with the path. 

Final script (this isn't going to fix your original problem):
