Two different characters have the same voice #1

The situation after running the software is as mentioned in the title. "Microsoft Yaoyao - Chinese (Simplified, PRC)" and "Microsoft Kangkang - Chinese (Simplified, PRC)" in the voice list, But I'm pretty sure that their voices are exactly the same. From the beginning to the end, only "Yaoyao" was speaking, Even if I set it to "Kangkang". The operating environment is as follows:

  1. System: Windows 10Ver1909 (64Bit) build 18363.778.
  2. Language: Simplified Chinese.
  3. ScreenReader: NVDA2019.3.1.
  4. Has it been tested in software other than NVDA: Yes.

You are correct both voices are the same. I check the windows registry for Kangkang one-Core voice and found its "VoicePath" entry refers to Yaoyao voice. Please note the problem is not from SAPI_Unifier. By the way thanks to your comment I provided the following registry fix: Kangkang.zip

Oh, Thank you for your patience. What is the specific reason? Does this error have anything to do with SAPI_Unifier? Thanks.

@Mahmood-Taghavi Is the cause of this issue from Windows? Can you integrate your registry patch entry into SAPI_Unifier?

Dear Cary-Rowen, Please use the provided registry file to fix the problem. I prefer not to define a separate rule for this voice in my program because the registry setting of this voice may change by Microsoft in the future. Hence, implementing a separate rule for just this voice may cause bigger problems.
