I don't know. that is one that  has me wondering as well. I think maybe
there is some setting that we are not noticing yet. I have it and I like it
. this is one feature that would make me not want to go back to windows 7 or
8.1.

Subject: Two Real quick questions about Cortana

Staying with the US American English region, is there any way I can change
the Cortana voice from female to a male voice instead?

Secondly, if I want to do this, how do I set up my system where rather than
hitting enter on the microphone, I can just simply say Hey Cortana?

I can help you with the first question.
You must look for a setting called let cortana respond to hey cortana.
To do this the easiest way is:
1: search for cortana settings
2: hit enter
3: tab one time past  the option that says manage what cortana knows 
about me in the cloud.
4: make sure the option i refered to above which is allow cortana to 
respond to hey cortana is pressed.

note: You might want to have cortana learn your voice.
You will get a list of 6 phrases you must say to her, don't worry, its 
pretty easy, and if you mess up she will prompt you to resay it.

And they come one at a time so its pretty simple.
