builtin tts constantly crashing

Project Member Reported by plundblad@chromium.org, Apr 2 2017

Issue description

Chrome version: 58.0.3029.31 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)
OS: Crome OS...)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Enable chromevox, make it uses US English tts.
(2) go to e.g. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/sweden
(3) Navigate through the page with cvox+down arrow

What is the expected result?
Chromevox should read the page line by line.

What happens instead?
After some lines are read, tts stops speaking.


NOTES: This happens all the time on some pages, rendering the device unusable with chromevox. I think it happens more when foreign words are included in the page. (using US English voice). Trying to read a page in Swedish with the English voice (which usually works) causes the engine to crash in a few seconds.

Opening chromevox options and switching tts and then switching it back again causes speech to work again (for some time).
