Ah, sorry about that. If you go to https://smarthome.steviep.xyz/talk do you see any en-US voices on your device?
Yes I do
Oh well. Try playing with the sound disabled in Settings
Can I select the tts engine from your /talk link?
Try adding `?voice=` to the end of the url, and then the first name of the voice you want based on the /talk link. Example: `?voice=Samantha`
