Yes, flat affect is also seen in autism so I guess it depends on her reasons which can't be known. Though it's also important to note that believing the voices are real isn't a requirement or even the usual. I've talked back to voices I knew weren't real.


 
On the other hand, one can argue that hearing a nice voice isn't a problem so might not be considered a 'symptom' even if it occurs. Maybe she's meant to be an combination that many can identify with, in which case I can see why they wouldn't specify, but it still helps me to identify with her.
No reason given
