There's been a few threads on this, around the time the episode first aired.
The accepted explanation seems to be that the voice we heard was coming from the Dalek's communication systems, not from someone speaking directly into a microphone, so it can be whatever it likes. Much as she was able to play 'Carmen' despite being wired into a Dalek shell, what we heard was what she wanted to hear, the sounds she thought she was making.
When the Doctor encountered her, she spoke directly through the Dalek synthesisers.
I don't know about you, but I can listen along to a song and 'hear' myself singing in my head, but when I actually open my mouth it turns into a horrible squeal. It's a bit like that.
