No, because a lot of the music and sound effects are annoying and I'm sensitive to constant repetition. I'd like to pick and choose which sounds to hear, but I feel like many of them are lumped in the wrong categories and it leads to me turning everything off.
For example, I originally liked having the UI sounds on because I like the blips and bloops of pressing buttons. But if I leave it on I have to hear the same annoying jingle every time a Sim completes a whim or even changes emotions, which is excessive in my opinion.
Once the voices started to get too repetitive I turned those off as well, but apparently Sim babies aren't under the Voices category, they're under the sound effects category (I know they only cry for a few seconds until your Sim can get to them, but if I wanted to hear a baby cry I would just have one in real life.) So I had to disable all the sound effects just because of that one thing.
tldr; Basically I wish I could hear the weather sounds, household sounds like kitchen knives cutting and doors closing, but without all the little cutesy jingles and music.
