I too would love an answer to this if anyone has one. Would be nice if the button on bluetooth handsfree kits started voice dialing as with my TouchHD, but just voice dialing would be a start. I am guessing that the only option would be using the voice search but I tried that and it just looked up whatever name I searched on google
HTC One

Download and install the car dock (see here).

Amongst other things, it allows you to voice dial.

Regards,

Dave

You don't need the car dock app, if you have voice search installed, just long press the search button and say "call whoever".

You may need to change your Search settings to include contacts/phone content...
