with Top Snow, the sensor does not detect both its placing and breaking.

Beds/Banners may or may not be intentional, since both are made with wool.

with Bamboo, only placing the initial Bamboo Shoot doesn't activate the sculk sensor. Placing bamboo on top of other bamboo will activate the sculk sensor.

Also affects frogspawn

The sign triggers the skulk sensor now.

After 1.20.30.21 only place/break top snow and place coral fans doesn't produce vibrations.

As of 26.60.21 only placement of coral fans is left to be fixed from this list

Can confirm in 26.45 and 26.60.22 that only coral fans are left to be fixed. However, only the placement needs to be fixed, as destroying the placed fans activates sculk sensors and shriekers normally.
