I have a problem with spoken audio in watch dogs. I did the first 4 hours of the game and everything was ok but yesterday the speech could not be heard anymore. I also tried to change the language but nothing ... For example when the character talks on the phone, I don't hear anything. The game audio is ok, environment, voices, noises ... only the speech is not heard. But then again everything was ok before. can you help me? Watch Dogs on STADIA.
Update: Hi everyone, glad to hear that everything is back to normal. Please let us know if the audio issues persists on your end.

Hi everyone, thanks for posting in the Stadia Community Forum. We're still actively working with our partners to identify a long term fix for this issue. I'll be sure to keep you all updated with the latest details.
It seems this may have been fixed. It's working for me at the moment, anyway.
@ChrisFromGoogle should respond to this, please.
So the game should not be sold at all, and all the existing customers who purchased should have the choice of either keep the game or get a full refund, I don't see any other way this can be ratified in a way that is fair to the consumer / customer.
I just hope that this does not show how all problems in the future will be deal with as this is extremely poor customer service and @StadiaTeam should be either more responsive or ashamed for this.
Whoever is reading this i just wanna say i just tried Geforce now because i have the Upisoft plus membership which allows me to play almost every Ubisoft title on pc and in this case even on Geforce now streaming and to be honest i played Watch dogs there and the game looks absolute amazing no problems with Audio or whatsoever and you can play all the Ubisoft plus which in Stadia it’s only available in America and even that not all Ubisoft games are available on Stadia in the first Place so i just wanna say if u guys like cloud stream gaming and you want to have a better much better experience go and try Geforce it has much more games and if u chose to pay for the Founders subscription you get to play with RTX on which Stadia with the 4K that looks like 1080 in many games cant even compare to it, Stadia had a good run with Cyperpunk i enjoyed it there i even thought In a while that Stadia is gonna be something good but with such catastrophe i don’t think they will never...
I'm now at the point where I could believe, that that's a special meta edition of the game, where our confrontation with the supports of two tech companies is like a very subtle meta commentary bonus...
Stadia Messenger <- I was able to contact stadia on Facebook Messenger and this is what they said.
Same issue here. Just purchased it without knowing this before hand. Would have appreciated a warning at least if this was a known issue.
Welcome to the gang
Hey @StadiaTeam
this is getting stupid really fast, @ChrisFromGoogle if this is a KNOWN issue as it was confirmed by other people in this thread via their communication with stadia support, WHY is this still on sale in the shop?!?!
Take it down until it is fixed for new purchases and give the people who own it the choice to either keep it or get a refund. This is frustrating and ridiculous that EVERYONE who has this game has the same issue and yet a jack turd is being done with it.
This demands a response for gods sake!
Is this how terrible Stadia is when it comes to supporting their paying customers? I love this service but if this is the way it will go more and more people (including me) will start looking at alternatives - and there are a few and many more to come in the upcoming years...
I want to buy the watch dogs 1 .. has the issue of voices been resolved?
Unfortunately, you can't say for sure yet. I would wait to buy it.
Unfortunately still no love from stadia team. Tested now on chromecast and on chrome and the voice audio is still broken.
I find it funny that Stadia is blaming and expecting Ubisoft to change something on this old game, while it is the Stadia audio engine that has changed and messed up the audio mixing... eh... I would avoid the purchase for now.
Don’t do it dude it still don’t work in matter of fact i suggest u leave Stadia forever it’s not worth it buying games on it anymore with such behavior
Hello everyone,
i bought Watch Dogs 1 yesterday and had the same audio error in Google Chrome. Then I tried Microsoft Edge Browser on the computer and everything worked there. Since today everything works in Google Chrome ... really strange. I would still wait to buy.
Many greetings
So now the sound works well? ... are all voices heard?
No. Does not work on chromecast, tested just now.
Update a day later ... auto does not work again... Until now, do not buy!
Still happening as of today (1 Feb 2021). Bought it today too. ![]()
Bought it today feb 2 , and same problem here in Sweden, choice English Audio/Voices/subtitles.. try chromecast & chrome.
No voices... weird to play.
contacted stadia support, they only told me contact ubisoft.

Welcome to the gang bro, take a seat and make yourself at home

Update: Hi everyone, glad to hear that everything is back to normal. Please let us know if the audio issues persists on your end.

I'm having this problem for the first time. Was there no long term fix?
I bought AC Valhalla add on and now, for the first time playing it, the audio for the characters doesn't work when Eivor is having a conversation with someone. All I get is the subtitle.
Grateful if someone can advise how to fix the problem.
Hi boyz i just finished Watch dogs on Geforce now with the badblood dlc the game is really wholesome, maybe Stadia will fix the issue when the new watch dogs comes out oh wait it is already out lol and they keep saying what is the future for Stadia more like when Stadia will die hahahaha it’s been like 5 long ass weeks great work @GraceFromGoogle great work indeed.
It seems this may have been fixed. It's working for me at the moment, anyway.
I can confirm! All is back to normal.
They fix the audio hooray finally
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CAN SOMEONE PLEASE SHARE THE FILE "SOUND_ENGLISH.DAT" FOR WATCH DOGS
