Ignition 8.3-Perspective  
It’s not clear to me how I edit what the TTS profile says during a voice notification. When I try to select any of the languages’ check boxes the toolbox tip says “Immutable resources cannot be edited.” When I select ‘Edit’ from the kabob, all the editable fields are grayed out.

Short answer:  
Click whichever script(s) you care about and select 'Create Override' in the context menu:

Then create a new override in the `core` resource collection:

Then you'll be able to edit it as you expect.

Longer answer:  
It's hard for us to convey this in the UI, but the new configuration model in Ignition 8.3 is basically a tree structure.

digraph Tree { rankdir=TB; node [shape=box]; edge []; External; System; Core; Dev; Test; Prod; Local; Actual [label="Live Config", style=filled, fillcolor=lightblue]; External -\> System; System -\> Core; Core -\> {Dev, Test, Prod}; Dev -\> Local; Local -\> Actual; Test -\> Local; Prod -\> Local; }

It's essentially a single project inheritance tree, where the order is hardcoded.  
What you do have control over is which deployment mode (if any) is loaded, and where you define resources.  
You _cannot_, by definition, edit resources in `system` - they are provided by either the platform itself or a module. This includes the base call scripts. So what you have to do is "override" them, creating a duplicate in the `core` collection (or whichever deployment mode you have active, if you have one) that is then a "regular" resource you own and can modify as you wish.
