Description:
After updating to version 1.21.111 (Copper Golem update), Minecraft Bedrock Edition sometimes gets stuck at 34% loading screen. In my case, the game eventually loaded after several minutes.
Once the game loads, there is no sound — background music, sound effects, and in-game audio are all silent, even though audio settings are correctly enabled. This is the third issue I’ve experienced in this version, indicating potential instability introduced with the latest update.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Minecraft Bedrock Edition (from Xbox App or Microsoft Store).
2. Observe the loading screen — it stalls at approximately 34%.
3. Wait for the game to load completely.
4. Check in-game audio — no sounds or music are heard despite settings being enabled.
Expected Behavior:
The game should load normally without stalling.
Audio (music and sound effects) should play correctly as per settings.
Observed Behavior:
Game freezes at 34% during loading
After loading, all audio is silent, regardless of settings.
