[nitpick] The voice iteration loop prints all available voices but doesn't serve a clear purpose in the final implementation. Consider removing this debug code or making it conditional.

Suggested change
for voice in voices:
print(voice.id)
print(voice.name)
DEBUG_MODE = False # Set to True to enable debug output
if DEBUG_MODE:
for voice in voices:
print(voice.id)
print(voice.name)

The first argument should be the string 'voice', not the variable 'voice' from the loop. This should be engine.setProperty('voice', desired_voice_id).

Suggested change
engine.setProperty(voice, desired_voice_id)
engine.setProperty("voice", desired_voice_id)

The hardcoded Windows registry path makes this code platform-specific and non-portable. Consider using a cross-platform approach or making the voice selection configurable.

Suggested change
desired_voice_id = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\Tokens\TTS_MS_EN-US_DAVID_11.0"
engine.setProperty(voice, desired_voice_id)
desired_voice_name = "David" # Replace with the desired voice name
selected_voice = None
for voice in voices:
if desired_voice_name.lower() in voice.name.lower():
selected_voice = voice.id
break
if selected_voice:
engine.setProperty("voice", selected_voice)
else:
print(f"Desired voice '{desired_voice_name}' not found. Using default voice.")
engine.setProperty("voice", voices[0].id)
