Music from other modes Plays During Live/Build Mode

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 is your current game version number? 1.53.115.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Load the game and enter live mode.
What happens when the bug occurs? Music will play even with no stereos on the lot.
What do you expect to see? No random music.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Not sure how long this has been going on, but I recently turned on my music setting and now I'm getting random music playing during live mode. Not sure if it's build/buy music or loading screen music, but it is ridiculously annoying. My main music setting is back off - I had only turned it on to start hearing the mix track music station sounds.

    I get this bug occasionally in fact, it just happened again and what I do every single time is I exit the household and go back in. It seems to reset the music; for me anyway.

    But I did write down the different solutions to try them just in case this one stops working for me.

    Anyway, I thought I would just share my solution for this because it's not on the list that I found.

    Hello,

    I notice that this happened today when my Sims were travelling. Two songs were playing at the same time. However, one of them was looping constantly.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? By loading into the game & finding that the loading music and/or build/buy music is still playing in live mode
    What happens when the bug occurs? The loading screen or build/buy music is still playing when I load in to my game
    What do you expect to see? To get it fixed. For the music to not play in live mode anymore when I load in to the game

    This bug has been happening to me years before I installed any mods. Also apparently this has been a bug since the game launched & still hasn't been fixed.

    Hello, I just experienced this glitch in October 2024. The Build/Buy music overlapped with the normal gameplay audio and music on Live Mode right after saving a house to the Gallery from Build Mode then switching back to Live Mode gameplay. Both audio tacks play at the same time creating a cacophony that makes the game unplayable.
