But, only female voice works,. If I select male voice the instrucctions are spoken by a female.
On the other hand, the spoken text is a little bit differente than the written text, is that normal?
Yes, its all normal.

Re female voice: The voice is selected by moving from the higher quality TTS engine to lower, subjectively selected by me. As soon as the language is covered, the gender preference is checked. If that particular voice does not have gender selection, you get the other gender. Among TTS Engines, only mimic (and flite) have gender selection. So, it works for English only. PicoTTS is female, espeak is unknown, as far as I remember.

Re text difference: yes, that's intentional and done by Valhalla to optimize for media (messages vs voice)

PS: it should all work
