can’t hear people speaking can only hear sound effects

I’m watching a show through Roku’s “Live Tv” and the show i’m watching is only playing the sound effects from the show?!?!? I can’t hear anyone’s voice, it’s only background noise and effects. The clicks, transition swooshes, swear word bleeps, boings and phone sounds, but no voices!!?!? What’s happening here?

Re: can’t hear people speaking can only hear sound effects

@Ryanwalters 

Happens occasionally that the audio track gets mucked up. (normally able to hear background/music/effects, but not the main audio/speech).  

Normally, I just look to see if the content is playing on another channel/app.

What movie or show were you trying to watch? (and on what channel on the LiveTV)?
