When Thunder and Lighting are on and Thunder Strikes, Sound is directional. If you turn away as it strikes the sound will immediately shut off but as soon as you face it again it works again. I have noticed this with note-blocks as well.

Make sure you've not accidentally enabled 5.1 audio or some similar surround sound configuration that doesn't match your speaker count.

I have noticed this issue with any and all sound. I have not tested in any of the snapshots. Just the single player worlds and the realms world.
