While MC-217447 is marked as fixed and described the same core issue, it is no longer possible to reproduce as easily; a more specific test case must be set up. To reproduce:
plant a large field of nether wart
place some boats on top of it
walk on the boats
Expected results: the step sounds you would hear would be akin to nether wart blocks or something else relevant.
Actual results: it sounds as though you’re walking on hard stone blocks, rather than nether warts, soul sand, or wooden boats.
How to fix: the nether wart material type for sound should not be pointing to stone, but to something more befitting.
