Auto-hiss not working for several species

[Rotharia]

Description of issue

Auto-hiss does not work (either basic or full) on Skrell, Tajaran, and Diona. I have not tested any others but I suspect they are also broken.

Difference between expected and actual behavior

Auto-hiss should be working and altering character speech.

Steps to reproduce

Make a non-human species with autohiss and speak.

they're not supposed to hiss?????????

I do not believe it is supposed to function for those species.

[Rafflesia7793]

So Auto-Hiss is defined on a species by species basis to add flair to the way that race speaks, based off of the biology of that race's speaking organ.

Any race that doesn't have defined autohiss functionality, usually because those races speak similarly to humans, will not hiss, even if the preference is turned on:
