Nope. Not always.

I have a none cheap but not super expensive soundbar. We were watching the film Phantoms the other night and the sound was just terrible.
The women's voices were very clear but the men's voices were inaudible whispers.
Turn it up ...FUCK YOU, ACTION SCENE
Turn it down
Peter O'Toole introduced. We can hear him clearly because he was classically trained.
Go back to usual men talking and just whispers again.
Turn it up. FUCK YOU I SAID, ACTION SCENE
Oh FFS, turn it down.

It was like that all the way through.

I have all the clear voice options working. I have tinkered on the sound profile on my TV to help try to lose the bass and give a bit more clarity on the voices but sometimes it's just the shit way the audio on the film is mixed.
