Answer 1

I used splitting of string and used playsilence() like below:

public void speakSpeech(String speech) {

    HashMap myHash = new HashMap();

    myHash.put(TextToSpeech.Engine.KEY_PARAM_UTTERANCE_ID, "done");

    String[] splitspeech = speech.split("\\.");

    for (int i = 0; i < splitspeech.length; i++) {

        if (i == 0) { // Use for the first splited text to flush on audio stream

            textToSpeech.speak(splitspeech[i].toString().trim(),TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, myHash);

        } else { // add the new test on previous then play the TTS

            textToSpeech.speak(splitspeech[i].toString().trim(), TextToSpeech.QUEUE_ADD,myHash);
        }

        textToSpeech.playSilence(750, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_ADD, null);
    }
}
