Strange "Death" Music Playing at Random
I can't really report this as a bug, since I don't know exactly what's going on. For some reason, I have been hearing a strange dirge playing randomly that sounds as if a Sim was dying or something; ...

Some things I thought of while playing today.
Spooky Stuff Pack: Radio station plays Spooky music that includes odd sounds.
Get Famous: There is a short tone like sound that plays with changes in reputation status.
Seasons: There is a sound when Patchy "comes alive" to tend gardens and another when he returns to his scarecrow post.
Around 6pm is when Patchy would be returning to his post.
Base game: There is a "Mood Sting" that sounds when Sims change emotions.
Might the sound you are hearing be related to one of those?

I haven't had any of those scenarios come up recently, but something did come up as a possibility; I haven't yet encountered it yet myself, but perhaps someone else has?
I noticed the dirge just play when my Sim finished his college courses; he got all A+'s, but normally a more upbeat tune plays when you pass your classes. Does a bad tune play when you fail all your classes, by chance?
I'm wondering if that's the tune I'm hearing.

@burin077 and @EuphorialQueen , I failed a class because I couldn't turn in my presentation over the weekend (or at least Sunday evening when I finished it) Couldn't turn it in until Monday at 8 am but I had class then and couldn't give the presentation which is separate … so it failed me!!! 😠 I think sad music did play at that time, but I can't be sure.🤔 But it sounds like this could be your mystery music! 💡 I think perhaps B- can be considered bad if the Sim is ambitious or for other circumstances depending on the Sim. 🤔 Or else the music is just messed up! 😃
@burin077and @EuphorialQueen , I just got a C in one of my classes (forgot that I started the semester on Monday with that Sim, and so wasn't prepared when the semester ended at 6:00 on Friday! 😮 I hadn't written the term paper yet! 🤭) I heard really sad guitar music for this when my grades popped up (even though my other class was an A+). So, if your Sims are in college when you hear this music, I think this is what is causing it.🤔 I don't remember what music plays when you get all A's, though. 🤔
