playnitegamespeak's Issues

Changing text-to-speech settings doesn't affect extension

As the title states, changing said settings (as per the video in the readme) does not seem to affect Playnite. It works in every other application on the machine except Playnite. Asked around the discord for Playnite and no one seemed to know, so I thought I'd post here maybe.
