Video shows it, lead in provides the setup of me dropping a jump pad and later dying on top of it, not sure if my loot box had something to do with it, but if it did it wasn't instant, it sat there for a minute on the pad (maybe someone off screen stepped on it).  Sound Glitch starts around 1:18.  Video runs until spec'd players get far enough away that the sound can't be heard, and it seems like other sounds come back.  I have no idea if other players were experiencing the same, the action really never died, but at one moment the player didn't seem to notice an enemy shooting at him till he passed in front..  FWIW I don't normally encounter sound/gameplay issues.

Thank you for the detailed post. We're seeing another bug with jump pad sounds after the update so they may be related.

Also came by this bug yesterday. I played with two friends and they all reported hearing the same continuous jump pad sound effect and getting sound problems after coming close to the jump pad.

can confirm this bug.. (playing caustic) the jumppad sounds keep repeating (sometimes after pressing ctrl)

I get the bug no matter what character I use. Anytime I hit a jump pad it will repeat. Around 7-10 second I tervals and the sounds will randomly play up to 3 times in those 7-10 seconds. I avoid them at all cost.

I'm having the same issue. So damn annoying. I'm getting bug without even using the jump pad.

I, too, encountered this issue this morning. A few additional notes in case they are helpful:

• First jump pad was placed in the water to the West of Slum Lakes. The issue started after hitting it for the first time, and continued to play the sound as if hitting it at zero range (no matter how far away I moved).
• Second person in my party hit the jump pad and triggered the issue for them, as well.
• After dropping a second jump pad and hitting it, the sound of both jump pads would play intermittently. The sound effect would stack with each consecutive jump pad.
• Going down did not eliminate the sound.
• Going down and being revived did not eliminate the sound.
• Dying did eliminate the sound.

I hit this bug this evening as well. The Octane on my team threw a jump pad and when I hit it, I started hearing the bug. It got worse and worse to the point where I was unable to hear anything else.

Something worth noting is that whenever the jump pad sound would play, my character would stutter slightly in their movement, which made this bug far more severe for me as it was no longer just an audio bug, but a gameplay bug as well.

Hope it can be resolved soon. I'm on Windows 10, GTX 2070, Intel 9700K, on board audio on a Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Ultra motherboard.
