Eating/Drinking Sound Effects Broken?

[Dora]

Hi all! Ever since the 240 patch, the eating/drinking sound effects when my husband is playing don't work for him. They play fine for me (we play on a server I host, no mods), but he doesn't hear anything when he drinks water or eats something. He verified the files, made sure the sound effects weren't muted, etc. Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas? I know it SOUNDS (heh) minor, but anytime something like this happens it makes me suspicious as to what else might not be working. Thanks in advance for help!

he should be glad he cannot hear them, the new sounds are terrible.

Hot: Its like your getting your knob polished non stop.

Exhausted: I won't even go into this one.

Affected husband here.

I can totally live without the sound effects, but yesterday I also had an instance where I got stuck in the water with just my head above (thankfully) and my oxygen indicater was blinking non-stop, but not dropping. It was like an invisible wall ten feet offshore. I could move deeper or side to side... just not out. It took a restart to fix and has never happened previously. As a swimmer with 420 oxygen, I'm sure you can see my concern.

Also yesterday, after the restart, I was getting stuck "machine gun" rubberbanding on the walls of our humble fort. I shut down, verified the cache, and found two files in error and set them to fix.

My beautiful wife, who is absolutely not sitting beside me right now (someone please send help!), started my game while I was at work and the partial sound loss is still there, Most other sounds are fine, like swimming, opening chests, etc. Just no eating, drinking, and I think footfalls. This makes me worry that the other glitches will pop back up, I'll get stuck underwater, drown, and my amazing wife will laugh at me for an amazingly long time.

My computer isn't exactly a killer machine, but it's also not a potato, and I haven't had any issues up until this point. She has pulled a backup of our server so i can do some testing without worrying about losing a flyer, etc., but I'd be thrilled if anyone had any advice, and wanted to state the issue I was having.

I would also like to point out for the record that I'm happily married and my wife owns no firearms. I was also in no way coerced into making this statement.

Thanks for your reply kindheart. have you had any other new issues?

Thanks to you to Garick... um... for just being you?
