Not sure whats going on but I'm losing dialog volume when in cut scenes

The problem only happens with this addon enabled. I have no other addons that play with my volume knobs, when watching cut scenes the dialog is either very quiet and music very loud, or there is no dialog volume at all. I've missed 2 cut scenes in TWW because of this already. I don't know if there is a way you can detect cut scenes and turn up the dialog volume for just those or not.

Strange.
Personally I'm going trough my second play trough and had 0 issues with cutscenes. I removed all volume manipulations from the addon long ago (maybe a month or smth), because changing volume mid dialog killed the current dialog line.
Cant really imagine what could cause this issue from my addon side. It only triggers when you interact with an NPC and hooks up to events that are fired when the dialog box text changes.

Only possible cause would be you running the old version of base addon maybe that still had the dynamic volume tweaks. What version are you running @Mabon78 ?

I have everything up to date I've run curse updater every single day before I log into the game. Do you recommend I reinstall?

commented

Worth a try i guess. But if its up to date then i have no idea what could mess with your sound settings. Playing a voiceover on top of in game cinematic is possible i guess if you are using autoaccept quest i guess, but not not lowering the volumes.

Did some digging around and found that there are a lot of people having this issue even without my addon. Today i had this issue myself where half of a cinematic was with dialog and half without. Later on in the evening all of the dialog sounds went off. only restarting helped.

I found this post in blizz forums with tons of people having the same issue in the past few days and there is a blizzard respose if you scroll donw saying that this is an issue on bizz part due to memory overload or smth.
Have a read @Mabon78 .

I'll leave this issue open for now but if it goes away with new patches of game client then ill consider it fixed.
