P2A no longer showing Polly's Neural voices

The Amazon Polly Player for windows has been deprecated...im not sure if thats a contributing factor...but I can't seem to get the Neural voices to show up in the list for P2A. Here's a link to documentation on how to do it non-SAPI, I'm not sure how these are making their way to P2A but I'm hoping that if a voice has `"SupportedEngines": Neural`, that it would be an option to select that voice.

Any help is appreciated!!

Continuing to share info as I get it. 

Lorby Axis And Ohs (which uses SAPI) is showing both versions (Standard and Neural), but P2A is not:

The full list of Polly voices are listed in registry @ `Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\Tokens`:

@Dave-Pilot2ATC is there a place where P2A generates the list of SAPI voices that I can "delete"/refresh to see if it can populate the neural voices?

To use Polly voices at all with P2A you must have the Amazon Polly For Windows program to provide the interface between the Amazon Polly website and Windows voices.  This program is no longer available or supported by Amazon.  If you do have it and are running it, then it only supports the Standard Polly voices, not the Neural voices.  P2A currently only reads the SAPI voices list from Windows, which the Amazon Polly For Windows program populates, and uses those voices.

A new version of P2A will support Amazon Polly voices directly and you should be able to use all the Polly voices.
