[MC-248719] No cave sounds since 1.18

I just noticed after watching old stream of minecraft 1.14 that I havent heard cave sounds for ages now. All music and sounds options are turned up to 100 but cave noises havent played in 1.18, possibly 1.17 too.

Hope you fix it. Ty

Try turning on subtitles, are there cave sounds/eerie noise shown?

I cannot confirm this behavior in 1.18.1.

The mood algorithm (the algorithm responsible for controlling how and when cave sounds are played) appeared to be functioning correctly and no issue was apparent in my testing.

The way that this system works is that when in low light levels, the mood value will increase. The higher this value, the more likely a cave sound is played to the player. When near light sources, the mood value will decrease, reducing the chances of a cave sound being played.

After standing in a dark cave for around 300 seconds, an ambient cave sound was played as shown in the attachment I've provided.

Ok ty. I will try to confirm it myself today by using your method.

Can confirm sounds work. But standing in the dark for so long to play cave sounds explains why I never hear them. There is always some light around, especially in new caves. Mybe this needs to be adjusted.
