Audio Problems with all storyline conversations.

I’m currently working on my Norn for the first time and I’m finding A LOT (like about half the voiceovers not including my own character’s voiceover) of the NPC voiceovers are just outright missing, the NPCs move their arms and such but their mouths don’t move and there is no voiceover. It will come and go like Eir will say he lines, then the next set are missing, then they come back again, very random.

Here are my Norn’s choices to get more specific on the story:

[edit, merged threads] Thanks for letting us know about this, and a special thank you to those of you who listed the exact story step where you’re seeing the issue! If you’re seeing missing VO, please continue to post here.

Thanks for the information, everyone! We’re continuing to investigate this issue, but haven’t been able to consistently reproduce it on the noted story steps. One of our first suspicions is that it could be related to lag causing the audio not to play.

Can anyone verify whether you’ve also noticed lag coming up more often? Thanks again!

Definitely sounding like it’s not lag and more like it only happens when the player character is female. We’ll keep investigating this; thanks for the help!
