Do I have to be on GovCloud in order to connect/use Azure Speech Services hosted on GovCloud US Virginia?

Hi. I am working with a cloud providers solution that is located in Amazon us-east2 region. I am hoping you can help confirm if the Azure Cognitive STT and TTS integration will/should work with Azure Speech Services hosted on GovCloud US Virginia?

  •  Azure STT integration using GovCloud US Virginia will allow us to activate, but testing fails. Can someone confirm if this is an issue with Azure GovCloud connectivity? We can hit the Azure Speech Service API publicly, so we believe it isn’t a firewall or connectivity issue there.
  • Azure TTS integration using GovCloud US Virginia will not allow us to activate and gives an error.

Thank you,

Pete

    @PeterJD Are you using the SDK or CLI to hit the endpoint? The guidance from sovereign clouds for speech indicates the usage of SpeechConfig.FromHost() instead of SpeechConfig.FromSubscription() which is usually used.

    Try using the speech studio https://speech.azure.us/portal for gov cloud to check if it is accessible from other regions too.
