Been playing through this and enjoying it immensely. However when I got to the part where I talk to the goddess' statues, the sound broke up into near static. It was very hard to understand what was being said. Reset the system and tried again. Pretty much the same thing. All of the other voices are fine, though, with only a bit of clipping here and there (par for the course for ADPCM voices on the system, even in commercial games).
