First time poster with a question! I have two Person Atoms named Jinx and Cassandra. I'm using Timelines to animate the scenes and trigger Head Audio (with Lip Sync enabled in Auto Behaviors). I need both characters to be able to speak at the same time, but it seems like whoever is talking last interupts the audio of the first. **Important** Both characters are independently controlled by separate Timeline plugins, to include their audio triggers, they are part of the same Animation Namespace.

Is there a way to let speech overlap? I also noticed that Head Audio settings seem to affect all characters. For example if Cassandra has Pitch of 0.9, then Jinx will have that pitch as well even though in her Head Audio the pitch shows 1.000.
 
You're probably adressing the wrong characters.
Each character has its own audio source and can produce audio at the same time.

Not sure what you mean. See screenshots, both characters are separate.
