You are right, the new voice makes och sound like, I don't know what here. Something between e and i. For some odd reason, because the Voice usually gets och right, for instance the sentence Han och hon sounds just as it should (I can't link you there since there isn't a discussion forum for that sentence yet).
The slow audio is OK, although hon doesn't sound quite perfect.

I was worried that it was just me. Swedish is hard enough without straining to hear the audio and wondering if it's my hearing going bad.
Honestly the audio just sounds like the speaker threw up in the middle of recording
Most often it's just pronounced like o (å), but the k can be heard sometimes if people speak extra clearly or stress the word.
Really struggling with how this is pronounced. It's almost silent. And it's very fast?
She and He does not sound good. Even though it is proper English, it still sounds awkward.
I was saying Han with a hard a and Och like oh but it kept saying no
How do you pronounce "och"? I have been pronouncing it like this: Oke. (Silent E) Is that correct?

As in the scottish loch without the l. Though often the ch is not pronounced. Then it sounds like o as in hot.
I know what you mean but I would use caution in recommending that pronunciation. Scottish "loch" is pronounced differently in Scotland and in parts of England close to Scotland, where the correct Scottish pronunciation is retained.
Would somebody please explain why "och" cuts off the "k" sound when spoken fast?
Just the way Swedish is. The K-sound is silent unless you emphasize the word.

My native Swedish friend says that dropping Ks is common. It is similar to our English "speakin' " and "speaking." We tend to drop those Gs often.
I entered hon och an - where an should have been han and it said it was correct
I have been correctly answering the questions , rechecking the answers yet I consistently get the incorrect response
There is a new pronoun, "hen", which means "han eller hon". Will you be incorporating this into the lessons?
I do wish they would not flip between type what you hear and put this in English, I just see or hear the words and automatically translate - they could make it clearer with a different coloured box or somethng!
I know I pronounced the phrase correctly. I have no idea why it was not accepted.
