I found this package by chance. I was using the official Python SDK, but out of nowhere it started failing with an OpenSSL issue unsolved for 8 months, also referenced here. The first issue suggests:

I think at this point your best bet is trying to migrate to the Azure Cognitive Services REST API, as Microsoft clearly has no interest or resources in maintaining the native SDK anymore.

<speak>Olá crianças! Como se sentem? Eu sinto-me contente.</speak>

This SSML worked:
