App/Device Info:

App
Librera Pro (Installed via Google Play).
Version: 8.9.176 (1.23.7-pro)

Device: Pixel 9 Pro Fold
Android Version: 15
Android Security Update Version: Dec, 5, 2024
Android Build Number: AP4A.241205.013.C1

Librera reader seems to skip TTS work on single word sentences.

As an example, take this particularly egregious example from the book "Good Omens"

"Hallo? Good afternoon. So kind. Yes. This will be a Tadfield number, I think. Or Lower Tadfield… ah. Or possibly Norton, I'm not sure of the precise code. Yes. Young. Name of Young. Sorry, no initial. Oh. Well, can you give me all of them? Thank you."

It skips reading the bolded words, just leaving a second or two of silence instead. Looking at the text replacements, it doesn't look to be doing anything weird.

You'll notice that it DOES read certain single word sentences, but only if they are present in a longer line of text. If it's a single word on a single line of text, it does not however.

Here are the list of replacements exported from my app as well...

"*[?!:;–|—|―]" " . "
"it’s" "it is"
"#bla" "bla disabled"
"*(L|l)ibre." "$1ibréra"
"fae" "fey"
"Sve Noc" "sveynock"
"<<" ""
">>" ""
"Aym" "Aim"
"Isse" "e say"
"Aima" "aim-ah"
"wyrm" "worm"
"<" ""
">" ""
"Chue" "Chew a"
".." ""
"*[()"«»*”“/\[\]]" " "
"—" " "

And finally, a recording of the playback. Am using the default android TTS engine, US English Voice 5 if that matters at all.
