[OPEN] Custom Music doesn't play on Next Song

I've been having a glitch with the in-game stereo in the last month or so. I think it's with my custom music, because it plays the regular Sims 4 songs normally. But when it plays my custom music, when I select "Next Song" on the stereo, no sound will play. This may happen just once or multiple times in a row, but generally it's consistent.

Yes, my computer has the specs to run the game. Yes, I have mods, but no huge game-changing mods. It's mostly just cc like clothes, makeup, etc. (about 320-something.) I really don't think that's it. Maybe it's an update glitch, I don't know. As for how many custom music files I have, it's 110. They're all the correct file type and kbps.

I heard you can fix sound problems by deleting the options.ini file, but does it reappear?

Thanks in advance.

  • Yes, the options.ini re-appears. Not sure if it will help though

    Have you tried without any custom content to see how that works out ? Have you tried narrowing down if it's just certain songs or random ?

    @crinrict I did try to take all my mods out, but the stereo still loses its sound when I pick Play Next. It's weird, because if I just let the stereo switch songs by itself it's fine, but that button doesn't seem to work for me with custom music.

    And no, it's no specific song.

    Does it matter which folder you use ? (aka category)

    No, it's any music category; Spooky, S-pop, etc. Whatever I put my custom music in, and usually I don't mix my custom music with EA music, I uncheck the EA music in that category. So I know it's just the custom music.

    It usually has a pattern of  no sound>sound>no sound>sound, etc. if I click on "next" multiple times in a row, though sometimes it does no sound multiple times in a row.
