Error shown in the video (ADB Logcat) when trying to play the TTS Text to Speech output on the Oculus Quest in the background:

Link to Android API TextToSpeech synthesizeToFile() which works with pico tts on the latest (Version 17 and up) of the Oculus Quest software.
developer.android.com/reference/android/speech/tts/TextToSpeech.html#synthesizeToFile(java.lang.CharSequence,%20android.os.Bundle,%20android.os.ParcelFileDescriptor,%20java.lang.String)

Hope this technical programming tutorial is useful to anyone trying to get Text to Speech TTS working on their Oculus Quest.
