How to set language sent to Voxeo to spanish

Hey Adam, I got this to work, but I ended up having to place the
xml:lang in the prompt, rather than in the vxml header because for
some reason, when I placed it in the header the calls would stop
working. I committed these changes to my clone joaquinblaya-ehs, if
you were interested.

I'm cc'ing the opendatakit list so that others can know about this.
