The Ubuntu packages are taken from debian, so the questions are still 
relevant.

The packages are as follows:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/asterisk
hoary (comm): 1:1.0.6-2: 
breezy (comm): 1:1.0.9.dfsg-1: 

http://packages.debian.org/asterisk
stable (comm): 1:1.0.7.dfsg.1-2: 
testing (comm): 1:1.0.7.dfsg.1-2: 
unstable (comm):1:1.0.9.dfsg-5:

Of all those packages, only the ubuntu hoary doesn't support speex.

So either upgrade to breezy, or use the debian stable/ testing or unstable 
distributions.
