Speak Text stops speaking mid-sentence or end of every paragraph - brand new MacBook Air 15" Ventura 13.4.1

In every app (TextEdit, Firefox, Preview, Word), Speech just stops, over and over. It won't start at the cursor and read to the end. It won't read the entire selection, no matter how small or large the selection is. This is a giant pain in the butt, as I need to hear most things spoken aloud instead of sitting at the computer to read. Is this happening to others?
