I've been playing hours of Fallout London now and only just realizing there is in fact supposed to be voice acting and not just me reading subtitles! It seems only some of my audio is working, like rain and gunshots, but no voices or music. Any ideas how to fix this / what could be causing it?

I play through Heroic's GOG launcher using GE Proton.

The current system is not a Steam Deck
We are running inside a Flatpak container
We are not running from an AppImage

Edit: Switching to GE Proton 10-34 worked.

Fallout 4 also has audio bugs running under Proton, I don't think it's mod related. So you could broaden your search and check Protondb. Some say use wine/proton 9.0, some say just download "xact" with proton / wine tricks to the game's pfx. I don't know personally so can't verify.
