VoiceChat don't work

[LotarCommander]

Bug description:

In HolyLib (VoiceChat) version 0.8 and above, on a fully updated server, the PlayerCanHearPlayersVoice hook stops working entirely, while this issue does not occur in version 0.73.

holylib 0.73 Console:

Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]
Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]
Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]
Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]
Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]
Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]
Player [1][Uin]     Player [1][Uin]

Steps to reproduce: enable VoiceChat module 0.8, add a print inside PlayerCanHearPlayersVoice

hook.Add("PlayerCanHearPlayersVoice", "Police_Radio_Main", function(listener, talker) print(listener,talker) end)

I was previously running a very old server version, and this issue appeared immediately after updating to the latest build.
I tested this on two different machines and the second client does not receive any voice packets at all and cannot hear the other player, the print statements inside PlayerCanHearPlayersVoice also do not fire in this scenario.

We had the same issue on 0.8, tried both the pre-release and latest dev build. Had to go back to 0.73 to fix. It seemed like PlayerCanHearPlayersVoice was always returning false when run manually, with it not being called otherwise.

It's expected to ecounter issues when updating to a pre-release version that still has an open milestone with open issues/bug reports.

Still don't quite know why this issue happens - I'll probably have to rework the entire optimization to work with GMod's implemented version of this to properly again.
