I had noticed the missing controlls in speech prefs as well.

Folks, I was using Calculator and I set it so it would speak the
result as well as thee keys I pressed. The voice is the same voice
that announces the time and other system announcements. Now I had
previously set this to a fast rate of speech, but apparently there
are a few settings that govern system speech. Apparently the voice
that speaks system announcements such as "Excuse me, bla bla app
wants your attention" doesn't have a separate rate of speech. This
can be found in system preferences under speech settings. If anyone
has worked with these and has any advice as to how I can increase the
speech or if I'm missing something which controls it, I'd sure
appreciate it. Its just tooooo slow for my liking.
tnx
