Greetings and welcome.

I recall wondering why SwiftMAc driver was not doing any voice lock
but then upon browsing the docs somewhere (github maybe) I found the
below... put it into my init.el file and it works.

  ;  examples of messing with voices
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-bolden   " [{voice en_US:Fred}] [[pitch 0.8]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-animate   " [{voice en-US:Kit}] [[pitch 1]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-animate-extra   " [{voice en-US:Kit}] [[pitch 1.5 ]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-lighten   " [{voice en-AU:Matilda}] [[pitch 1]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-lighten-extra   " [{voice en-AU:Matilda}] [[pitch 1.1]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-smoothen   " [{voice en-UK:Daniel}] [[pitch 1]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-monotone   " [{voice en-US:Eddy}] [[pitch 1]] "  )
(swiftmac-define-voice voice-monotone-extra   " [{voice en-US:Eddy}] [[pitch 1.5]] "  )

FWIW, speech performance and reliability  is somewhat reduced for
certain types of content and I am in the habit of temporarily
disabling voice-=lock at times, but it's generally nice to have it all
enabled by default.

Good luck!
