What reading systems support this "feature"?
All of them? Apple Books, Adobe Digital Editions, Thorium, Colibrio... Those are the ones I test on, but I'm guessing any current EPUB reader. Apple Books and Colibrio only support it with fixed-layout, though, not reflowable. Readium supports it, too.

What namespace is "media:" from in the opf?
I'm not sure how to answer this, but this is what InDesign puts in a reflowable:

xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml

and in a fixed-layout:

xmlns="http://www.idpf.org/2007/opf

Read-aloud EPUBs have been a huge part of my ebook conversion work for years, so from my perspective, it's nothing odd.
