Still not  seeing any mention of Daughters audio being fixed 😕

We had made some attempts at a fix in Hotfix #1, but unfortunately as we've been digging further into the issue and have found a more robust fix it touches on code that will require to be sent to Cert. 

We will let you all know when we build for Cert to get these kinds of things remedied.

Hi, Danielle - these crossed-out fixes, just to clarify - does this mean we don't have these fixes currently?

Correct, they will be coming in the next hotfix 🙂
