title: pyttsx3 giving no audio output
body: <p><em>I've tried many different lines of code and can't get any output. It reads the mic just fine but won't say anything. I've been working on this for 3 days and can't get any speech out. I've also tried version 2.7 of pyttsx3 and the latest version, I&quot;m on win 11</em></p>
  <pre><code>import speech_recognition as sr
  import pyttsx3
  
  listener = sr.Recognizer()
  engine = pyttsx3.init() #I've tried &quot;dummy&quot; and &quot;sapi5&quot; also
  engine.setProperty('rate', 150)
  engine.setProperty('volume', 1)
  
  engine.say(&quot;What's up&quot;)
  engine.runAndWait()
  </code></pre>
