Use of undeclared identifier 'kAudioUnitSubType_SpeechSynthesis... - macos

Question

I've been following the examples on Audio Units from Learning Core Audio book by Adamson and Avila. I'm getting the above error for some reason. I #include <CoreAudio/CoreAudio.h> even just to make sure I am importing the possible libraries for Audio, and made sure to configure the "Link Binary with Libraries" under the "Build Phases" part of target. I even changed the Base SDK to OSX 10.7 (as opposed to the default 10.8) to see what happens, but no cigar. And according to the documentation, the Speech Synthesis API is not fully deprecated in anyway -- some functions are, however. My MacBook is running 10.7.5. XCode is Version 4.6 (4H127.
Below I put a comment on where I got the error in CAPS. Any ideas?

kAudioUnitSubType_SpeechSynthesis is declared in SpeechSynthesis.framework, which lives within the ApplicationServices.framework umbrella framework, so you should #import < ApplicationServices.framework>.
