This is one of the most annoying things right now in EA.
I'm a big story fan, but I'm also very much a D&D mindset player, meaning I'm saving my resources and go as long as I can before long resting. I'm super conservative with spell slots and only use abilities for when I really need them, as I never know when that big bad will show up for a boss fight.
I've missed so many of the cut scenes, broken conversations (having Astarion discuss Cazador without revealing he's a vampire, just talking about being turned etc.) and just missed a lot of the character development. And why did I do this? Because I approached the game with a D&D mindset - save your resources.
I did notice an improvement in last patch that it seems you can now actively talk to all your companions in camp to exhaust their options and trigger some conversations even if only one of them get's the ! to talk to them.
I've yet to see Gale's weave scene however.
