The Bug:
The sounds of magma cubes and slimes aren't controlled by the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider.
Any action that is created through a hostile entity doing something that doesn't result in blocks being changed, is normally controlled by the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider. For example, the sounds of skeletons burning, zombies groaning, and drowned stepping, are all controlled by the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider as they should be, because the entities are performing these actions.
The sounds of magma cubes and slimes aren't controlled by the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider when they should be, and are instead controlled by the "Friendly Creatures" sound slider.
Steps to Reproduce:
Navigate to the "Music & Sounds" settings menu.
Turn the "Friendly Creatures" sound slider to "OFF".
Turn every other sound slider to "100%".
Exit this menu, summon some magma cubes or slimes, and listen closely as they jump around.
Take note as to whether or not the sounds of magma cubes and slimes can be heard, (are controlled by the "Friendly Creatures" sound slider instead of the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider).
Observed Behavior:
The sounds of magma cubes and slimes aren't controlled by the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider and are instead controlled by the "Friendly Creatures" sound slider.
Expected Behavior:
The sounds of magma cubes and slimes would be controlled by the "Hostile Creatures" sound slider.

Maybe related to the fact that you can sleep when slimes are nearby, maybe they are somehow "peaceful" mobs in the code.
