Error when running script

Thanks for this - I was looking for something like this for a long time.

But I get the following error, even when running the script directly in Scriptable (The shortcut results in the same error:

No spoken response when running via Siri / Shortcuts app

Hi, thanks for creating this useful script. I managed to get it working with Siri following your instructions. (i.e. commands do get relayed to my Squeezebox player) However, I do not get a spoken response at all (like "Sorry, I don't know how to..."). I tested in Shortcuts app directly and I don't get the spoken response too. Testing in Scriptable, I do get the spoken response although it is in a male voice (my siri setting is female). Any ideas what could be wrong?

UPDATE: After some more troubleshooting, managed to get a workaround going. Here's my findings and workaround solution in case anyone else have the same issue.

1. Scriptable app uses Voiceover function in iOS for the text to speech (hence the male voice in my case as that is the default for Accessibility -> Voiceover)
2. I create a simple script in Scriptable to test the Speech.speak API in the shortcuts app. No luck there so I now suspect the issue is with the Scriptable app rather than your script.
3. Googling online, found a release note saying the Speech.speak API does not work in Siri for some languages. (https://talk.automators.fm/t/release-notes-for-scriptable/1611/4). I use English(Australia). Not sure if that is the cause.
4. As a workaround, instead of using the Speech.speak API, I changed it to Script.setShortcutOutput(Response) to pass the message back to the Shortcut app. Then in the Shortcut app, I added another action to speak the output from Scriptable.
