Odd AVSpeechSynthesizer behavior in latest macOS 13 Ventura beta

I have an app that plays synthesized speech. If I call the AVSpeechSynthesizer speakUtterance method with a premium voice, then no noise comes out, and the synth never works again. However, if I first use a non-premium voice, it works, and I can then call it with premium voices and they speak too.
