Drilling sound issues, looping, volume spikes.
Sometimes when drilling the sound of the player tool will loop after drilling is stopped, the volume changes as you move around near where you were drilling and sometimes spikes to painfully loud levels for a second or so. This looping can continue for up to five seconds after you stop drilling.
It's hard to catch this effect on a recording but I will update this post if I manage to do so.
This has happened over many worlds on different servers for me for months.
I always use realistic sound setting where possible but haven't been able to find if that is the source of the issue. This issue always happens while drilling the voxel material, I have not observed this effect above ground or while operating the drill without touching voxel material.
My hunch is that this could be a bug with realistic sound reverb while using the tool.
I have the same bug
Here I managed to record the bug. The volume spikes are actually uncomfortably loud.
The echo also lingers far longer then it should if that is even intended to linger at all.

Could you please provide us with more information regarding the issue you reported? How often does it happen? Does it happen only in MP?
Any additional information would be greatly appreciated!

This issue happens in both single player "offline" worlds and online worlds. Though it seems to only happen on worlds that have realistic sound option enabled. I have yet to run into this issue on an official server with arcade volume. Have not tested official servers with realistic settings but in the experimental p2p server and single player it happens for me. It happens almost every time I'm drilling but below the surface only. It does not seem to happen while I am drilling on the surface, only when voxel material is above / surrounding my character. I believe it's an issue with the realistic sound reverb or other echoing effects.

I only been playing for about 3 weeks, this is not a big issue. My issue is falling into the earth! over and over again while walking. But i have had an issue with sound while drilling, it stops and i don't hear anything. never thought it was an important issue so i did'nt bother coming here till i started to fall into the Earth over and over while walking! ;P

I forgot about this thread for a while, I recorded a clip some time ago but forgot to upload it to the forum it seems.
This happens to date though. Here is the clip, the recorder doesn't do the volume much justice but the spikes are actually pretty painful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVjYBL1a2n8
The issue is the spikes in volume and the weird echo / loop. It happens frequently for me when mining on realistic sound settings only. I like the realistic sound but have stopped using it because of this issue.
I run the latest version of Windows 10 Home, this issue has persisted through many updates.
I own the game on steam and all the DLC. This happens on any voxel material, in and out of atmosphere on realistic sound settings. It happens with any hand drill, not ship drills.
If it's hardware related it's either due to my CPU or motherboard as all other components have been changed and the issue persists. I run a Intel I5 7600 and a Gigabyte H270 Gaming 3 motherboard.

Hello, Engineers!
As this thread is rather old as well as last comments, I need to ask if you are still experiencing this issue nowadays.
I was not able to reproduce it on current (v197.170) game version. Not even when following all things written here - in day, during night, underground, windows sound settings...
Is this still problem for any of you, please? Or can you confirm that it was fixed in the meantime?
Kind Regards

Because there is no new comment from you, and we are unable to reproduce the issue on our own, I will close this thread now as outdated.
If you or any other player will experience this issue again, please make a new thread and provide all needed info there.
Thank you for understanding.
