Butterfly with long tail creature has OVERLY loud flap sounds, can cause physical pain
As of 2 major updates ago, the creature that looks like a butterfly with a long flowing snake-like tail has flapping sounds that play so loudly, even at 20% master volume it is painful to my ears. It's my favorite creature, and it has rendered it too uncomfortable to play. This issue is relatively new, but I've reported it a couple times and it's still being overlooked.

Please look at the flapping sounds for some of the creatures. I've heard the sound from another animal as well, although it wasn't a unique animal, one of the generated ones. Depending on your headset, volume, and ears, it can be very physically painful to come across.

I hadn't played in awhile so I didn't remember if it was always like that but the flapping seems way too loud to be normal. My butterfly doesn't have a long tail but it has this issue too. I think i have my music and sfx volume set to around 20% since I always thought the game was pretty loud, idk what my master volume is at though.

I have tried to adjust master and other sliders and none of it seems to affect it. It's always magnitudes louder than other sound effects. It -does- respect the SFX and Master sliders properly, it's just that the sound in-game is way waaaay too loud so in order to make the flapping sound normal, all other sfx have to be too quiet to hear.
