espeak skips the first phoneme of the sentence

I am trying to use espeak for text to speech on a respeaker core v2. If my sentence is "Begin Recording", then espeak only speaks "egin Recording". It occasionally says it correctly. How do I fix this?

I tried adding some random characters ahead of the text like "_", "," etc. But the problem persists

I am using this command espeak -ven-en+m2 -s140 "Begin Recording"

Found an easy workaround. I noticed that the problem occurs only for the first time I use this command. Worked around by adding a dummy espeak command for blank text.

espeak -ven-en+m2 -s140 "" followed by espeak -ven-en+m2 -s140 "Begin Recording"
