From that I'll guess you're streaming with a browser or using the Contour app and not watching the TV broadcast.  When I watch the NFL game on watchtv.cox.com (NBC) with Chrome, I hear the same thing you're hearing.  There is English audio with Spanish in the background when SAP is OFF, but audio is clear English when SAP is ON.  There is no issue with TV audio on the Contour box.

    It is happening right now (8:20 Saturday night) on ABC channel 7 with the cable box.; not the app. We had the same on NBC channel 4 on Thursday night. There is nothing wrong with our SAP settings. All other channels are in English as normal. We called customer service Thursday night and they tried to gaslight us as well. Hard to believe Cox has NO IDEA what's going on.

      Hi Oren, I'm sorry that you had an unpleasant experience with our customer service team. Is this issue still occurring on channel 4 and 7, and are all receivers currently impacted by this? I checked the feed for both channels in your market, to see if there is an issue with the video feed supplied by the broadcaster. At this time, we are unable to replicate this issue. We suggest turning the SAP settings on and then immediately off. If the issue persists, please email us at cox.help@cox.com. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator
