Default AI Narrator

Hello! I noticed after the most recent update that the default AI Narrator for my project changed from River to Laura. I've played around and searched but can't seem to change the default back to River in this project. It doesn't look like River is a legacy voice and should still be supported. This is a little frustrating, because it means searching for and selecting River each time I add new Text-to-Speech, where previously it remembered the last Voice used. Does anyone know how to change the default narrator within a project? It was not doing this last week. I appreciate any insight - thank you!

    Hi Carole,

    I experienced the same issue as you when testing this now. The previous behavior was the "last used" voice in a project. Now it appears to default to Laura each time with the April 28th update.

    You have the option to roll-back your version of Storyline in the Articulate 360 desktop app here:

    I just reverted to test this specifically myself and 3.115.36688.0 does correctly repeat the voice you select in your project.

    So you may consider going back to this version for now.

      Thank you, Frankie! I think I'll revert for now until they can address this - it is less efficient now.
