/playsound with the new "source" doesn't work at all in 1.9 pre 2

What I expected : /playsound with the new 1.9 arguments and the new sound names would work.

What I got instead : The command executes, but no sound is heard.

Note : This is NOT a duplicate of MC-91102. Checked that issue already, and made sure I was using the correct sound names.

How to reproduce :

1. Open Minecraft in 1.9 Prerelease 2
2. Type /playsound anysoundname player @a
3. No sound is heard, but the command executes correctly.

I looked on the wiki for the sound names and syntax, and I even auto completed the sound names with tab in the game to make sure. A couple commands I tried, for instance :

/playsound minecraft:game.player.hurt player @a
/playsound minecraft:random.break player @a
/playsound random.break player @a
/playsound random.break blocks @a

None of those work. Hopefully this wasn't a stupid mistake of my part. This is my first bug report anyways. Hopefully this helps!

None of the sounds you mentioned exist. Try it with

/playsound minecraft:block.metal.break player @a

As I said, in my examples, the two first I put were auto-completed with tab and are on the list on the wiki. I'm going to try that one though.

The wiki is ran by the community and may not always contain up-to-date information on snapshots and pre-releases.

sigh Yes, indeed it is that the wiki's sound page hasn't been updated, even if they said "list of new 1.9 sound syntax changes". Thanks for the help anyways.

I just updated that page to include a table of the 1.9 sound-events, generated from sounds.json itself. If you can think of any improvements, feel free or suggest them on that talk page.
