Same here, I am getting the same issue, but it's not consistent. it repeats a few times and then now don't appear again.

Unable to get information about the scribe from the soldiers in the tavern, but I should be able to progress this quest by following the other clue.
I didn't enter the tavern from the main entrance, and I think it has something to do with this bug (I didn't hear the soldiers' conversation at all)
