MiniMax H3 voice reference reportedly broken: ref2va only works as direct pass-through

A Reddit user reports that MiniMax H3's ref2va workflow ignores reference audio: instead of cloning Voice A onto a new sentence, it generates a random unrelated voice. After a full day of single-variable troubleshooting (prompts, formats, turbo loras, timing), the only 'working' case is when the reference audio says the exact same sentence — i.e., pass-through. Reference images work fine, and other users have reproduced the issue in an open Hugging Face discussion.
