The bug
Underwater ambient sounds play just fine but cave ambient sounds don't seem to play properly. They can be played with the /playsound command but they don't play naturally.
I had been trying to get them to play naturally for about an hour by going in and around dark caves and in the nether but they didn't play naturally. I also had the subtitles on but nothing showed up there. The slider for the Ambient sounds was at 100%.
I saw some previous bug reports on this issue and it says 'RESOLVED' but the sounds still don't play naturally in the most recent snapshot.

I can confirm that cave ambiance doesn't play in 18w46a.
I used the same test I used for MC-91803 and never got any sounds after over 30min of testing (I can also say that cave ambiance normally plays every 10min on average in previous versions).

I'd also like to point out the difference here being that cave ambiance doesn't play at all, where as in MC-91308, cave ambiance plays away from the player.
Confirmed for 18w47a.

I myself once started wandering in dark caves in 1.14 snapshots but none of cave ambience every played during that time.
This issue is a must to be fixed.

That would be MC-91803. Can someone confirm that this is an issue again?
