You don't need to go to any web page in particular to test this.

Open the browser and hit ctrl-shift-I and then type this into the console and press enter:
speechSynthesis.speak(new SpeechSynthesisUtterance("Testing 1 2 3"));

This works in Ubuntu Firefox and in MS Windows Chrome, but it does not work in Ubuntu Chromium. This is true for the apt repository Chromium and for the snap repository Chromium in Ubuntu.
