[FIXED] [CL] Neighbors complain about noise when there is no noise

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? GTW, GT, CL, OR, SD, DO, LSP, PPSP, SSP, BYSP, BNSP, FSP
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Walk through an apartment foyer at nighttime. Bathe, eat, wash your hands, get a drink at night. It does not appear to matter which apartment complex you are in. I have had the same problem at two different apartment locations.
What happens when the bug occurs? The neighbors come and pound on the door complaining about non-existent noise. Sometimes this even occurs while they themselves are making noise late at night.
What do you expect to see? I expect the neighbors to not show up complaining about noise when there isn't any significant noise occurring. I can see exercising, playing the piano, or turning on the stereo - but getting up to go to the bathroom? Or eat a meal from the fridge without cooking it? Seems extreme to me
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. It was after the installation of CL (City Living), obviously. I believe it started the next patch after that. Or it may have been there all along and I just never noticed it.

My Sim is living in the Culpepper apartments and does not get along with the neighbors (the Rasoyas). Lately, though, they have been pounding on the door complaining about the noise when my Sim has just gotten home and isn't even in the apartment yet. There's no music playing or anything - he's just in the foyer and one of the neighbors is pounding on the door. They also complain if my Sim gets up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom or opens the fridge to eat a late night snack. It *might* be by design, but it seems a little extreme to me.

Is anyone else having issues like this?

Not sure if this is related but I am also unable to complain when *they* are making noise. Started a different thread for that.

All content except Kid's Stuff.

Some Mods, but it was working before.

     Sims listening to music via Earbuds (Fitness Stuff) will no longer cause a noise complaint from neighbors in the apartment.

    So they found one cause. Not sure if it's the only one but since this thread is a bit old and has multiple noise sources mentioned (and some have already been fixed), I'm going to lock this thread.

    If you still have issues with this, please create a new thread.

    Thank you.
