This is not a direct answer to the question, but alternative.
I encountered the same sort of difficulties and since it was just a distraction anyway, I went with old time radio broadcasts. They are only 15, 30 or 60 minutes, so there is a complete story in that time. They have actors portraying the different roles, so not so much of the droning voice feeling.
I have a text to speech program which I use on my computer, and the voice is pleasant and the pronunciation usually quite good, but it would take about 9 hours to get through one of my favorite novels by John Buchan. Hence the alternative.
