I'm seeing this when trying to build for Android in 2018.3.1f1 for any sounds loaded from resource packs. I've tried changing the compression format from vorbis to ADPCM and I still can't get anything to play (even though things work fine on other platforms). Anyone have a workaround for this?

I should also add that there have been no related fixes in the two patch releases since.

This is currently happening for me in Unity 2017.2.0f3, so it doesn't appear to be fixed yet.
