Original Post — Direct link

Have not played in awhile but jumped back in after about a year away. I started up a new sandbox custom island and the game keeps playing the music from the New World while I am in the Old World. This is happening right off the start - I have not even started the New World session.
I have all DLC and all cosmetic packs. The game is basically maxed out with the content.
Has something changed with the past years updates? I have literally a 1,000+ hours in from years of play - I have been playing since the start - and never heard the music from different sessions be played in another area. My music also stops abruptly while playing and only the sound effects play. Then out of the blue it starts playing again.

Anyone else seeing this?

System is Windows 11 - Playing Direct X 12 - Intel i7 13 gen, 32gb memory, RTX 4070 TI - playing at 4k.

Hey @lawrencepepper

We have reported this once before but the team have been unable to reproduce the issue so would like to know the following:

Did you encounter this issue only once?
If more than once, how frequently?
Can you provide a video of it?
Did you do any extra steps before New world ambient music start playing?
Did you have any game mods installed?
