How do you enable Firefox Narrate under Linux?
This survey https://qsurvey.mozilla.com/s3/listen directs desktop users to use Firefox Narrate to TTS pages, but under a more or less default Ubuntu install the Narrate button doesn't appear.
This page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-reader-view-clutter-free-web... explains that "This button will show up only if Windows/Mac/Linux has Text-to-speech information in the language that the article is in", but not what steps to take to correct it.
Various older pages online point to TTS add-ons, but if the Narrate functionality is there it should be possible to get it working.
What's the application or daemon that Firefox needs for TTS under Linux?

Yep, those are the add-ons that people suggest, but I'm talking about the native Narrate functionality introduced in Firefox 49. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/49.0/releasenotes/
I checked the support articles. Nothing was found. I called for more help.
