K3 has two dictionaries, the New Oxford American Dictionary does have IPA spelling if you actually go to the dictionary listing. I have several 3rd party dictionaries, TTS is not enabled in any of them. It's not a DRM restriction, just a 'feature' of TTS apparently.
It's not clear why you'd need the dictionary to have TTS pronounce the word, if it is in the text then just use the TTS there. If there's something in the dictionary you want TTS to read, you can create a highlight, then find this in My Clippings and use TTS there. Not very convenient but ...
