I was thinking more in this direction -- that some barriers to "really being there" make it harder to get a good result -- but personally I'd rule that not understanding what is spoken amounts to a penalty so high as to be an automatic zero check digit (though technically a successful performance of resonance).
Other examples of this, I'd rule, would be if the target is whispering something, texting on a phone out of the Seraph's view, or sending messages via Ethereal Tongues while under Seraphic resonance. The resonance is technically WORKING, but not relaying any useful information to the Seraph unless the Seraph's own senses pass along something usable.
