Music from other modes Plays During Live Mode

The loading music keeps playing (in build & live mode). How can I make it stop?

  • At random times the load music just carries on playing when you're finally in game and won't stop- you have to exit game and reopen...

    This bug does not happen randomly in my experience. It only happens when one loading-screen track has finished at the same time that the lot has finished loading in. So one track concludes and the game loads both the lot it was loading as well as the next track for the now-finished loading screen. When that happens, apparently there's nothing in the game's code that tells the track that it can stop, so it keeps playing until you quit the game and reload.

    The timing for this is really tight, so most of the time you don't have this happen, and when I time my loading screens to avoid those transitions between tracks, I have never had this issue pop up. I don't have any saves handy without mods to share, but it would not surprise me if anyone could find this bug with some tedious testing.

  • The menu music gets stuck after loading the game and continues to play while playing. When exiting, two songs play at once. 

  • even AFTER it's finished loading! 

    (Ok, I've looked at the "Helper's Blog" and the "Technical support - PC" areas but only saw an "endless loading" type articles, but nothing on the MUSIC 🎶) 

    This happens NOT in all of my games, but in some of them. Even after going out then back in, I will get it next time I use the Loading Screen... pretty much anytime I leave home or leave a destination for home. 

    Only if I turn the Music off will it will fine, (kinda defeats the purpose of the radio though)! 

    Any help will be... helpful. Thank you!

    5782341b77vl​  That has happened a bunch of times with my game.  The only way I've found that stops it is to quit the game and restart.

    Hope this helps.

    Occasionally the music and sound will glitch in every mode of the game. For example in build and buy mode the music playing will rewind a little. It happens in the loading screens and live mode too. It happens with every sound too. Its especially annoying when I'm building a house and humming with the music and suddenly it rewinds a little. I don't have any cc or mods.
