  External solution:

  Route the speaker through a relay NC contacts to the cable that
  plugs into the external speaker jack.  Activate the relay from
  the PTT line that was designed to activate an external amplifier.

  When all the digital/solid state circuitry just doesn't solve
  the problem - build a kludge box!  In the spirit of ham radio....
