faint pendant
spark flame
Platform: XBOX
Issue: Toy Story music is majorly slowed down
humble dust
( Platform: Windows ) Issue: I'm mortified by the creepy rendition of "You've got a Friend In Me" ( Joking aside, it is heavily slowed down ).
royal mortar
Platform: PC (Steam) Issue: Music for Toy Story realm is slowed down and sounds terrifying
peak rain
Guys it gets fixed after you finish the quest in there it will sound distorted due to the quest not done.
spark flame
Yes, i have noticed 😂 but to be honest that's unnecessary and very confusing
royal mortar
It's good that it fixes itself but doesn't really make sense and not a very good introduction to the realm
stoic creek
@royal mortar yeah, it doesn't make any sense to start the realm off with one of the most iconic theme songs distorted.
vernal willow
It's good that it fixes itself but doesn't really make sense and not a very good...
Agreed, I thought my game was broken. It would make more sense if it changed after discovering something is wrong.
winged pendant
Agreed with other, it's really strange for the music, I understand for Buzz voice but for the realm music I thought my switch was going to die 😭
quaint wedge
my game has no sound at all... (volume is on blast for everything and sound works on computer generally). XBOX game pass if that's relevant
shy oxide
Platform PS5: Toy Story realm music is drastically slowed down.
strange isle
Platform Switch: Toy Story music is really slowed down/garbled.
Welp guess I should have read the other comments first.
broken inlet
Platform: Xbox Series X
Rain in Dreamlight Valley is heard inside the girls bedroom in toy realm.
Also, I agree with above that slowed down music in toy realm sounds buggy.
noble fractal
Platform: switch
Issue: planting sounds are going in and out in the forgotten forest
Screenshot/Video:
lime zodiac
Platform: Pc/steam Issue: When Eric is sitting down the Music of his Flute plays sometimes
shadow mason
Platform: Xbox. When harvesting crops/herbs with an NPC companion, the sound is now very loud, echoey, and tinny. It is not pleasant. The sound doesn’t happen when harvesting without a companion. EDIT: Apparently the noise is associated with the companion affection and not harvesting, as it just happened when watering plants too. This sound doesn’t fit the action nor environment at all so I can only assume it’s unintended. It makes me not want to use followers.
umbral rock
Platform: PC Issue: No sound for the whole game after the update. Reinstalled game and checked settings. Nothing changed
formal scroll
Platform: Xbox. When harvesting crops/herbs with an NPC companion, the sound is ...
Platform: Xbox one gamepass
Same problem. It drives me crazy. This sound is awful. Thanks for the tip without the companion. I always have one with me and thought it was a "new" sound 😅
exotic sage
Platform: PC Game Pass
Issue: For some reason, the sound for the timer when coins or items pop up for a limited amount of time doesn't work. It worked once earlier today after patch but stopped working ever since that one time.
fleet tapir
Platform: PC Steam
Issue: Hearing heavy rain in Toy Story Realm
Screenshot/Video: Really tried to capture a video with sound but the rain stopped before I could capture it.
gloomy ore
Platform: PC Steam
Issue: I haven't had any game sound whatsoever since the second week of Early Access being out. It's been two big updates and still the issue is not fixed. Two of my friends have the same problem. I've even gone so far as to reinstall all drivers on my pc. This has to be a game issue and I am desperate to have sound again. 😭
quaint basalt
Platform: PC Steam
Issue: Music becomes drastically slowed down in Toy Story world and then in the rest of the game once you leave it, it’s like a bug that spreads. It’s really bad.
lean pendant
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: If you try to open more than one Blue Chest a day it won't open and the shaking chest sound never stops. If you try to open it again the shaking chest sound will layer, for as many times as you try to open the chest, and the sound never goes away. I tried going into houses, fast travelling, nothing would make the cacophony stop! I had to restart the game.
cloud plover
Platform: Switch
Issue: Opening Blue Chest - when trying to open a blue chest while not connected to the internet, the shaking sound will not stop, even after the message about still not being able to connect to the internet is displayed. Only closing the game and restarting stops the sound.
Screenshot/Video:
fresh rain
PC
The timer jingle still doesn't play when items "explode", except for money
white seal
platform: switch
issue: after I switched Mickey to his holiday outfit, I lost a lot of basic sounds immediately. no sound for mining, fishing, etc. or companion npcs. bgm was okay. after I restarted, sound came back for most things but when I hung out with Donald, he didn't have a voice. I didn't have time to reset again so I'll check tomorrow if his voice comes back.
neon helm
Platform: PS5
When cooking the jingle after cooking will be out of sync or off pitch. It will be right every 3rd or so time you make something. It does not matter where on the map you cook.
When entering the Toy Story Realm the music pitched far too low and the different instrumentals were out of sync...sounded like horror movie when a record isn't playing correctly.
mellow junco
Platform: Windows
Issue: Scar dialogues not being translated.
No screenshot. In spanish, all dialogue lines from scar sounds in english.
brave mason
Theres a weird rumbling crunchy sound in the toy story world and idk what to do
lyric walrus
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Issue: Warped, sometimes slowed down, music after cooking a meal.
azure wren
Platform: PC
Issue: Sound bug after harvesting pumpkins in the Forest with Buzz. It sounds like the noise from a well, but can be heard anywhere on the map and is loudest when facing Northwest.

Toy Story Realm music is dragging and sounds off beat

It was the same for me, but I thought it was intentional. Fixed itself after the first quest for Buzz.

Platform: PS5
Issue: When I'm planting things the sound it makes as you plant each vegetable cuts out.

hi. Made this video with xbox capture. what younhear in the back is the sound of a blue chest that is trying to get open but it seems there was a bug it didn't open and as you can hear the sound goes on and on. haunted me to my house! it was very haunting and hilarious so i had to share it here! haha!
peak ravine
I'm having the same issue on Switch. I've seen a blue chest in the exact same spot on my beach the past two days but when I try to open it, it says it's already been collected and makes that opening sound on a loop.
north sonnet
Switch sound issue I’m having is sometimes I feel like I’m in the 90s driving down a dirt road with a scratched CD in the car.
lunar ermine
Platform: PS4
Issue: Not sure if already mentioned, having issues with the jingle/timer for when items and coins "explode".
Coins - Jingle plays and coins appear for an extensive period of time
Items - Jingle doesn't play at all, then items themselves are disappearing after only a couple seconds
Has been happening since before update 2
pallid moat
Audio glitch after opening a chest it doesn’t fix itself I have to close the whole game for it to go away just for it to happen again when I open another chest
dim token
Platform: Switch
Issue: Try to open a chest, get a message that I’ve already collected all my awards for today, and chest shaking noise continues even after I disengage the interaction with the chest. The only way to stop the shaking noise is to completely close the game and restart it, or turn all sound effects off. This has happened with multiple chests in multiple areas on the map. Every day or two a new chest will spawn that does this, and I learn to avoid that specific chest (trying to open it a second time after restarting will cause the same problem again), but some chests that spawn work perfectly fine.

Platform. Nintendo switch Yes i’m having the same problem where two moonstone chests show up in different places in the valley one work the other one says you’ve already received your reward today and then that sound of the chest shaking continues all through walking through the game. It never stops. Even when I shut my game off. It’s still making the sound platform Nintendo switch. Platform
haughty egret
Switch (DE)
Playing the frozen realm for the first time: the audio was completely broken for the fire extinguishing and shovel/pickaxe your way quests. Sounded like too many audios trying to overlap. To the amount that i was scared that the game would crahs any second but somehow stayed alive but stressed me out all the time.
tight chasm
Platform: Xbox One
Issue: Chest opening sound plays on an endless loop
Screenshot/video: Don’t have one as of yet but sometimes I’ll have 2 Moonshine chests in my valley and when I open one it says I’ve collected all my rewards for today and will just try to open forever, the rattling sound won’t stop at all. Basically the same problem as the ones before the last message
visual geyser
Platform: PC Steam
Issue: There is literally no sound in my game whatsoever.
woven nacelle
Platform: Xbox Gamepass (Xbox One)
Issue: The hum of the fountain sometimes continues humming even though I am nowhere near the fountain and actively walking away from it (to the point that it can become irritating to hear). I'm not sure yet what triggers it, sometimes it has continued humming after use of the fountain but a few times it has just hummed without me even using it just walking by. I have Stream Friendly music on (not sure if it's relevant).
I was able to resolve/get rid of it this instance by entering a building and exiting, but I'm sure this not supposed to happen. Also I'm not sure the bgm plays at all when this occurs, I do hear characters talking and such but not the bgm when this bug happens.
I think the hum of a Pillar also has done this also on occasion.
Screenshot/Video: I don't have one right now but next time I experience it I'll try to capture it.

It’s not raining but it sounds like it’s raining 24/7 even in houses and shops

last remnant
Switch
Went to open a blue chest & it said “You have collected all your rewards for today. Come back tomorrow.” But then the chest opening rattle sound continued on & would not stop. I went away from it & into Remy’s & it still was rattling. I just shut the game off.
mortal roost
PC, Steam: No sound in the game at all. No music or sound effects. Have checked my outputs checked the mixer and the game settings. 
uneven dome
Platform: Steam
Sound Output: headphones
Issue: not sure if the issue is with the radio's directional sound or if it's just that the sound source is set on the center of the first floor main room instead of the radio, but when I rotate my camera, the music played by the radio comes from the opposite direction (away from the radio rather than from it). Performed same camera rotation check in the first floor's upper and left rooms, radios worked fine.
dim token
Platform: Mac
Issue: When opening blue chest it gives me an error message stating I already claimed my rewards for today, but I hadn’t claimed the blue chest yet. It also makes the rumbling sound that the game makes when opening a blue chest & won’t stop.
small sparrow
Platform: Windows
Issue: Blue Chest sound the chest makes, I can even hear in forgotten lands and the only way to make the sound stop is either exit and restart game or go back to title screen and continue

The spooky speaker from the monster inc. series will play music but will always echo what's being played from a radio I am not sure if this is a bug or not but I feel like it is. It's really strange that it will echo what's being played instead of just amplifying it like a speaker should do. Hope this can be fixed since you can interect with this item but it echos the music being played from a radio. I am playing on xbox for windows 10.
gloomy ore
Platform: PC Steam
Issue: I haven't had any sound in game since the second week of the game's release. It's slowly driving me mad. I've tried absolutely everything including the extreme of uninstalling and reinstalling every driver on my pc. I desperately hope this is fixed soon. My friend that plays this game also has the same problem.
wild garden
Platform: XBOX Issue: if you’re offline and you accidentally open a moonstone chest, the sound of the chest opening will constantly play until you restart your game
dim token
Platform: Mac
Issue: All villagers except Scrooge do not talk when I start a daily discussion with them or walk by them. I’ve tried reloading game and it doesn’t fix.
dry marsh
Platform: Xbox
Issue: I can’t stop hearing the portal sound, even when I’m no where close to my portals. I was teleporting around and now all I hear is the portal’s sound effects.

Platform: Switch
Issue: horse galloping or something can not be stopped unless I open up the + menu. (Warning headphone users)
Edit: I don’t know how or when this started because I had my switch muted
2nd edit: restarting fixed it

Platform: Steam
Issue: There is a constant buzzing/static noise when I am not in a menu. When I am running around the valley it is buzzing, but not when I am in the inventory, map, quests, etc.

Platform: Switch
Issue: Buzz Lightyears voice is still glitchy from when he lost his battery’s, even though I completed the realm and his friendship quests on the first day.
lavish bramble
Last few times I’ve played on switch, the audio in the forgotten lands started skipping in the corner closest 2 the pumpkin house. It’s the only place I’ve noticed it so far.
