Help Google nav app voive guidance problems.

So once I input the route and begin driving the route the voice guidance works at first. Once I get to a named street however a different voice comes on and starts spouting off some crazy info such as the text to speech version and then a website. This is rendering the app useless for voice guidance. Has anyone had a similar experience with the google latitude nav app. Everything is updated, but i'm stumped as to why this is happening.
 
What text to speech engine are you using? It almost sounds like the voice module you are using is a demo...

I use Svox with one of the English voices and it works flawlessly...

I can tell you that setting up the speech engine and voices is not just one click and done... A little more info on setup and engine and we may be able to help!
 
There are 2 text to speech engines on my phone. Currently samsung TTS is selected. The other choice is pico TTS. Those voices don't sound like the one being used in google latitude navigation.
 
I haven't used the Samsung tts engine before. I would recommended trying Svox to see if it fixes your problem. Its in the market...
