if a tree burns in 1.13(pre6) and blocks "disappear" they make a sound like wool or smth like that. In 1.12 for example the only sound you hear is the firesound and the blocks just disappear. (In the screenshots you can see in 1.12 you only have fire sound and 1.13 you have fire and block breaking sound.)
This issue is included in "MC-91091 - Wrong sounds for some blocks".
