Thanks. There's plenty for me to get my head around here.

Are all the ISpVoice methods(???) shown in your Git link? Will it still be possible to use the plugin's Select Files/TestVoice page to start/stop ad-hoc speech. I don't see a 'pause' option in your link.

I think I still need some help in how to handle the events stuff that is in the current plugin (inherited, not developed by me). These bits:

Spoiler:

from win32com.client import WithEvents
class SapiVoice(object):
    self.spv = ...

    def handler(self, event_handler):
        return WithEvents(self.spv, event_handler)

class SAPI5DriverEventSink(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self._driver = None

    def setDriver(self, driver):
        self._driver = driver

    def OnEndStream(self, stream, pos):
        self._driver.OnEndStream(stream, pos)
        
    def OnStartStream(self, stream, pos):
        self._driver.OnStartStream(stream, pos)

class SelNamesDlg(QDialog):
    ...

    def initialize_speech(self):
        ...
        self._advise = self.testVoice.handler(SAPI5DriverEventSink)
        self._advise.setDriver(self)
   ...
