android - Automatic detection of the TTS selected by the user and initialization of the TTS class constructor - Stack Overflow

I have created a class that initializes the TTS (Text-to-Speech) object and monitors when the initialization is complete. I also implemented two functions:

1. releaseOfTtsResources
2. toSpeak

package com.gtdvm.echopoint.utils

import android.content.Context
import android.provider.Settings
import android.speech.tts.TextToSpeech
import java.util.Locale
import android.util.Log

class TextToSpeechHelper(context: Context) : TextToSpeech.OnInitListener {
private var tts: TextToSpeech? = null
    private var pendingText: String? = null
    //private val ttsCreated: Boolean = false

    init {
        // initialize the synthesizer
        Log.d(TTSTAG, "initialize the synthesizer")

        //val tempTTS = TextToSpeech(context, null)
        val userTTS = context.getSystemService(TextToSpeech::class.java)?.defaultEngine ?: "com.google.android.tts" //TextToSpeech.Engine.DEFAULT_ENGINE
        //val userTTS = Settings.Secure.getString(context.contentResolver, Settings.Secure.TTS_DEFAULT_SYNTH) ?: "com.google.android.tts"
        Log.d(TTSTAG, "Motor TTS select: $userTTS")
        tts = TextToSpeech(context, this, userTTS)
    }

    override fun onInit(status: Int) {
        //Set preferred language default is system language
        Log.d(TTSTAG, "Set preferred language default is system language")
        if (status == TextToSpeech.SUCCESS){
            Log.d(TTSTAG, "TTS initialized successfully")
            tts?.language = Locale.getDefault()
            pendingText?.let { toSpeak(it) }
            pendingText = null
        } else{
            Log.e(TTSTAG, "TTS initialization failed")
        }
    }

    // Function to speak the text received as a parameter
    fun toSpeak(text: String){
     Log.d(TTSTAG, "the text is sent to the synthesizer")
        if (tts?.language == null){
            Log.d(TTSTAG, "TTS not initialized yet, storing text for later")
            pendingText = text
        } else{
            tts?.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null, null)
        }
    }

    // Release TTS resources (called in activity to avoid memory leaks)
    fun releaseOfTtsResources(){
        Log.d(TTSTAG, "Release TTS resources")
        tts?.stop()
        tts?.shutdown()
        tts = null
    }

    companion object{
        const val TTSTAG = "TextToSpeechHelper"
    }
}

The issue I am facing is that my function always uses the system’s default synthesizer instead of the one selected by the user.

For example, if the user has installed Smart Voice on their phone and set it as the preferred TTS engine, my function still uses the system's default synthesizer (e.g., Google TTS or Samsung TTS).

How can I ensure that my function uses the user-selected TTS engine instead of the system's default? Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated.

NOTE:

• I am using the latest SDK, Android 15, and what I found is already deprecated because it was used in older Android versions. That’s why I need help, please.
