Helminth stops speaking when I turn off hint transmissions

[True_Beorn]

On PC with the non steam launcher the helminth's dialog doesn't play when the hint transmissions are turned off in the audio options

Now I understand that the helminth is trying to give us tenno big hints, but I do think they are too vague and also too cool to be turned off when turning off hint transmissions

 

Please let the wall speak even when I turn off hints.

Turning hint transmissions back on instantly makes the Helminth speak again, so it seems to be very clear what is the cause
