Severe Lag upon Interacting with Sound items

Summary: Ridiculous 7-10 second lag spikes where the game entirely freezes upon picking up a book, or clicking on a lore event that has spoken audio. This is NOT occurring from talking with NPCs.

System Specs: Windows 7 64 Bit Enterprise, still streaming the game, but playing.

Description: As said in the summary. This has happened with Deckard's Journal Part 1, The Wretched Mothers Lore tidbit, and Leah's Journal Part 1. When you click on the object, or trigger the lore event, the game will freeze for 7-10 seconds, and then the audio will begin to play, but repeat like a broken record on the first second of the audio dialogue for 4-5 times. This is usually accompanied with other odd sound noise. Eventually it will play the dialogue properly.

You are streaming the game, meaning that your play experience is not optimal.

If you want an optimal play experience, fully download the game.
