Ah?

No, it's supposed to have the audio drivers, and espeakup, and thus have
speech synthesis.

That's not expected. How did you actually drive the grub menu, precisely?
How do you run your VM? I'm using
qemu-system-aarch64 -cdrom mini.iso -m 1G -cpu max -machine type=virt -bios /usr/share/qemu-efi-aarch64/QEMU_EFI.fd -device intel-hda -device hda-output -serial stdio -device virtio-gpu-pci -device usb-ehci -device usb-kbd
and that comes up talking after pressing s on the virtual USB keyboard
or on the serial port (i.e. the graphical window or the terminal)

You mean after validating in a grub menu that does show up on the serial
line?
Please be *very* precise in your report, since I have no idea how things
are happening on your side.

but quite often there are rough edges.
