Problem description
While testing phetsims/qa#917, when changing the locale and voice in the Localization Tab of the Preferences Menu I didn't hear anything. Based on #52 (comment) and a slack conversation with @chrisklus, it was discovered that this feature was working in the unbuilt version but not working in 1.0.0-dev.4.

Thanks @Nancy-Salpepi! I think this was actually caused by phetsims/number-compare#20, instead of phetsims/utterance-queue#108 like I was previously thinking. Leaving self assigned to verify in the new dev version.

This appears to be fixed in dev.6, closing.

Also, thanks to @zepumph for some great help on this issue. We refactored Number Play and Number Compare to use one announcer and utterance queue. I'm liking these changes!
