Dialogues will usually be fast forwarded, as if you mash very fast. So it won't work if dialogues have automated segments. And cutscenes will be skipped completely, even if a dialogue plays at the same time. For technical reasons, a small amount of cutscenes can't be skipped. But most of them, including the longest ones (like the intro cutscene) can be skipped.
