The Navigator's sound clip processing is very wonky. With mods, it has a habit of bugging out and not playing files. This is especially true when attempting to get depth sounding readings. I have found out that this bug is also embedded somehow into save files, mildly corrupting the save so the remedial action I found that clears the bug does not work.

I have found that this works for me when I see the busted Navigator bug. (I only run New UI TDC 0_6_8 mod by Darkwraith)

1. Confirm the presence of the bug.
2. Exit completely out of the game and Uplay.
3. Go into JSGME and unload all mods.
4. Restart game in vanilla and load subject save.
(The game will register 50% hull damage upon loading. Ignore it.)
5. Have the Navigator take a depth reading. He should now speak properly.
6. Exit the game and Uplay.
7. Reload all of your mods in the appropriate order.
8. Load the game. The navigator should now function and speak properly.
9. If the bug is still present, repeat steps 2 through 8 using an earlier save or an autosave until a save functions properly with this correction.
10. Upon clearing the bug, delete all saves where the bug is present. I have found that these saves are corrupted in such a way that the bug is always present, even if cleared.

I hope this helps.
