On Android via FDroid the speech packs in this software are extremely robotic. There aren't many options for degoogled Android users. In the end I settled for the Google Speech Services and disabled network access and used the default voice. GSS has its issues and voices don't download properly, but the default voice is tolerable in this situation.
