Brave Crashing when Using Mac OSX Text-to-Speech

Every time I use the built in Mac Text to Speech function (this can be found in System Settings>Accessibility>Spoken Content) Brave Crashes.
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. In Spoken Content (System Settings>Accessibility>Spoken Content) checkmark :ballot_box_with_check: “Speak selection”
  2. To the right of “Speak selection” click options and change keyboard short cut to " Control+` "
  3. Open Brave, In brave Select text you wish the be read allowed hit " Control+` ".

Expected result: Brave application will unexpectidly close
