Unable to change Siri's voice on MacBook Pro

On macOS (latest version of Sonoma), none of the Siri voices are downloading and I’m unable to change Siri’s voice. Has anyone encountered this problem and found a fix?

Definitely having the same issue. I noticed that it only applies to Siri voices. For example, if I go to System Voice and try to download a non-Siri voice, it downloads with no problem. The Siri voices won't... just sits there as an empty circle. I tried chatting with a rep... first they had me reboot in Safe mode, which did nothing. Next they wanted me to set up a second user to test it, and that's when I gave up. My machine is brand new... I downloaded the voice 4 days ago on 14.1 and it did fine. Had to do a factory reset and had updated to 14.1.1, and now it won't budge. I'm waiting until the next update to see if it fixes before I do anything else.
