ARM32 Support for Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech API (on Raspbian)
I'd like to see the speech API coming to Raspberry PI, meaning having FULL ARM32 support for the linux implementation of this SDK. This would enable the raspi maker community to use Azure Speech seamlessly in their devices.

GovCloud - Cognitive Services Endpoints in overview
It would be beneficial for GovCloud users to have secure access a list of available endpoints for the service listed under the overview instead of just the token issuing endpoint forcing one to comb through out of date documentation trying to find the secured GovCloud endpoints.

Azure TTS Cognitive Service Voice Limit Issue
I am very new to learn cognitive services of Text-to-Speech (TTS) of Microsoft Azure. I successfully able to convert the given text into an audio file by using TTS services of Azure. It works fine when I'm having a single voice element in my SSML XML document. The example of working SSML is;
<speak version="1.0" xml:lang="en-US">
<voice xml:lang="en-US" xml:gender="Male" name="en-US-Jessa24kRUS">
Hello, this is my sample text to convert into audio?
</voice>
</speak>But, when I'm having multiple voice tags(on gender base), then it causes an error. The SSML of it is:
…<speak version="1.0" xml:lang="en-US">
<voice xml:lang="en-US" xml:gender="Male" name="en-US-Guy24kRUS"> What’s your1 vote -
Voice has changed
Something changed with the zh-CN-XiaoxiaoNeural voice - the 'sentiment' expression no longer works, as of a few days ago. Using exactly the same code, but the output is quite different (no longer sounds sentimental). Was an update posted? If so, where do we find a list of changes?

Neural TTS in french
Hi,
The new neural text 2 speech feature looks amazing, but one language is missing : French :)
I don't know if it something on the list, or if it is coming soon, but I'm waiting for this feature to switch from Google Wavenet.
I'm pretty sure that the french voice generated by this new neural TTS by MS Cognitive service will be a game changer.The french language is complex, the emphasis, the punctation etc... but if MS can provide the same awesome quality as they have done in english... we will be able to build something incredible...

Stop TTS synthesizer
Once the synthesizer starts synthesizing audio, it can't be stopped. It would be nice to have some method that would stop/interrupt currently running audio synthesis.

Mark Labels for TTS Speech API
Azure Speech API should offer json mark labels for Text to Speech audio. This allows developers to use the audio file and the json mark labels to create audio tracking text in the app. The competitor has a similar solution. I found Azure TTS to be superior but am forced to use the competitor's solution due to lack of json mark labels. Speech mark labels should be in json format and available for all languages. It should provide information such as the begin and end timestamp of each sound to the text, phrase and sentences.
