Make sure you have the Solo versions. The other Real Speak voices with
the same names are also available as SAPI5 voices. The Solo versions
talk directly to JAWS and are much more responsive. There is a entry in
the JAWS menu (Insert + j) > Help > Web Resources > Real Speak Solo
direct download page, where you get these voices.
There are several down sides to these great sounding voices (I like the
Karen voice with the Australian accent). These voices can not go nearly
as fast and they are not capable of raising the pitch to indicate
capitals. I (and probably many others) complained to Freedom Scientific
about this. At the time they had removed the capability to indicate
upper case by saying "Cap". They listened. Now this can be done in the
Speech and Sounds Scheme Manager. Their audio tutorial (actually a FS
DAISY file on the Speech and Sound Schemes walks you through setting up
upper case notification this way as an example.

There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any
real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I
am working on things that matter.

You have to turn jaws off and then back on in order for the voices to show
up.
