In version 49, Firefox added a text-to-speech function to its reader mode. On Windows it works well with Microsoft-provided voices (namely Microsoft Zira Desktop or Microsoft David Desktop), but other voices cannot be used as they do not show in the list.

Those voices I would like to use are provided by third parties and are SAPI5 compatible. I tried to fiddle with Firefox settings in 'about:config' and found nothing interesting except for narrate.filter-voices, which allows to show all voices, irrespective of the language.

Is there a way to make SAPI5 voices show up in Firefox ?

I went to about:config, typed (searched for) narrate an then changed setting narrate.filter-voices from true (defalut) to false
