Hi. A merged Lines Expansion mod is a complicated thing to do. Each voice file had it's unique name linked to its respective record in the ESP file. So if you change the record ID it will break the mod, you'll get silence.
What I did here in my LE game, was to merge each Lines Expansion mods with another simple ESP files, to avoid similar IDs (so the merge tool doesn't change the voice ID). Merge both mods setting the Lines Expansion one first (as master) so its records ID's are not modified.
could you provide a not with additional Dremora faces merged version for Dremora Line Expansion please, so that i can use both .esp?
Problem is:
I'm using this mod too:
Bettere looking NPCs The Additional faces mod recognize this mod and can override it. Dremore line expansion don't recognize it. So all Dremora in Mehrune Dagon's shrine look the same.
Thanks in advance.

Nevermind. Better looking NPC has also an BSA+ESP version, which can be put below under your mod. Sorry for molesting you with this shit. :(
Yes, in my game all previous Lines Expansion versions are already merged with other ESPs. No problems so far, just don't forget to rename the folder containing the sound files with the new ESP name.
Well, I'm using zMerge and as long as mod contains .fuz files, everything seems to work fine. But if mod contains separate .lip and .wav files (like Bandit Lines Expansion for example) then NPC is silent or not moving lips, depends if I choose zEdit to handle voice data.
Heh, funny enough I just stumbled upon this earlier while looking for some patches to backport from SE. I was thinking 'wonder when or if this will be backported'? Keep in mind, I rarely look at the SE page, so I've never seen any of these mods coming.

I hope this helps.
