Text to speech broken after update?

I just got a Kindle 2 last week as a gift so I'm a bit new to it. Anyways, yesterday it apparently updated itself and now my text to speech feature doesn't work. I've tried it on books I got from Amazon, books I downloaded from elsewhere and pdf files and the option isn't showing up for anything. It was working just fine that morning and I was able to use the feature on several different books so I'm assuming it was the update.

Has anyone else had this problem or know how I can fix it?

Try restarting your Kindle. Home > Menu > Settings > Menu > Restart. After the restart test with a book you know worked with TTS before the update.
