Voice action "Set alarm..." doesn't work on HTC Desire

I have been trying out Voice Actions on an HTC Desire. Actions like Navigate to..., Directions to... and Note to self... work fine. When I try saying Set alarm to 9 o'clock though I get this error message:

Set alarm...

In order to use this feature, download the latest Clock from the Android Market.

I already have the HTC Clock application and as far as I am aware it is fully updated but I'm assuming that the HTC Clock doesn't support the voice actions. Where is the correct Clock application? Opening the Market and searching for Clock doesn't seem to show any promising results (though I have to admit that I haven't checked all 1062 hits). Has anyone got this working on an HTC Desire? What do I need to do?

It appears that it is possible to get the "Set Alarm..." voice action working by installing a leaked version of DeskClockGoogle.apk as described on this website. I have not tested it.

It seems that this feature is not yet officially released but is coming soon.

I believe the clock application on the HTC Desire is one made by HTC and not Google. I believe Google is in the process of releasing their own clock application via the Market as they have done with their other apps like Maps and soon to be Gmail.
