TTS Fails

So far I've had this happen with two books I'm reading with TTS, If a chapter contains &lt;3 which displays in the viewer as <3 TTS will not work for that chapter. If I open the editor remove &lt;3 and reload the book in the viewer TTS works again flawlessly.

In the two books it's always simulating texting when it occurred. I'm posting just to let people know what might be stopping TTS, as I had a hard time identifying what was causing the problem in the first book I encountered it in.

Happy New Year and Happy reading.

I'm using Windows 11 and it happens for me under both Legacy and Modern Windows Engines. The Voice I use is Microsoft Zira Desktop. I have an intel i7 and 32gb ram.
