It looks like the Win32 TTS code is not checking (or gracefully switching to the "not initialized" state when there are no audio devices present:

@jeditobe, can you please try the latest snapshot at https://www.scummvm.org/frs/daily/scummvm-snapshot-win32.exe? This version worked fine for me since it contains a fix.

Please also let me know if this fixes your issues with Windows 2003, since I suspect it doesn't have the TTS stuff. However, ReactOS still might be broken, but that's a whole other topic.
