This paper details the Eloquence team's approach to Task 2 of the 2nd MLC-SLM challenge at Interspeech 2026, which involves multilingual Multiple-Choice Question Answering (MCQA) across 21 languages. Three approaches are explored. First, we fine-tune Voxtral-Mini-3B via LoRA with cross-lingual data augmentation, ASR transcript augmentation and timestamp-aware audio cropping, achieving 0.72 macro-accuracy on evaluation Phase 2. Second, we apply multimodal in-context learning (ICL) to the frozen Voxtral-24B model to correct a strong label bias, reaching 0.81, our best result. Third, a training-f
