Many blocks make slightly different sounds to stone. Their hit volume is 0.27 rather than 0.37. This issue is caused by the lack of sound definition in blocks.json. It defaults to normal. This issue can be solved by defining the sound for all affected blocks to stone/wood where appropriate (although for some blocks it makes no difference).
This bug report does not include incorrect sound properties. Those are described in MCPE-184908. This report only covers blocks with no sound assigned whatsoever.

To Reproduce
Open the blocks.json file specified in the table above.
Find the affected block ID .
Notice this ID is missing a "sound" property.
Expected Result
All blocks are assigned a sound set. All blocks intended to make stone sounds use the "stone" sound set. They sound identical to other stone blocks like Java Edition.
Observed Result
Some blocks are not assigned any sound set, causing them to fall back to the "normal" set. This makes them sound different from other stone blocks.
To Fix
These properties must be fixed in the files specified. While adding the "sound" property in 1.21.30 would address the issue in new worlds, it would not fix Marketplace worlds which are version-locked to an old blocks.json.

One way this has a greater impact is that resource packs that change only stone will leave out some blocks, which is unintended behavior. Also, this relates to MCPE-53577
Please explain why you think this is a bug. The fact that some sounds are similar to another without being identical is does not seem like a bug to me.
