Hi,
The Sims 4 in game and The Sims 4 menu mucus affecting my gameplay and it’s seriously so annoying that I can’t play The Sims 4 at all.
I love playing The Sims 4, it’s my favourite game to play when I’m calm and it makes me calm and chilled out person. I love playing cottage Living and I’m obsessed with it, but The Sims 4 bugs,glitches and lags need to be addressed and a workaround. Thank you!

Hey there @Miles_Gamer_2020
Is there a specific issue or bug you're experiencing with the music, or are you just looking for a way to turn the in-game music off? If you're looking to turn the music off, you can head into Game Options, click the Audio tab and reduce the volume of the in-game music there.

Hey, so, I encountered a bug on April 26, 2022, at 3:54 PM Eastern Standard Time. I was at 21 Chic Street Apartments with all three apartments filled by Penny Pizzazz (game pre-installed Sim) and two households of my own Sims, consisting of a married couple, and a single young adult woman in the other apartment.
When I switched to Build Mode for a second, music played normally, then when I switched back to Live Mode, the music wouldn’t stop playing. Actually, I’m not sure if it was from the loading screen or from Build Mode, but I think it was from Build Mode. When I went to Manage Worlds to check the name of the apartments, the music continued, overlapping with the standard loading and neighborhood music so it was kind of noisy having two songs playing at once. Kind of funny, but chaotic.
The music was playing at a normal speed, just overlapped, in the neighborhood screen, and then just the build music in the live mode. And the same song, no other song. Just the same song looped, now that I think about it.
Hopefully you guys will get this bug fixed soon.
I’m on Windows 10, and I can post my specs, if you want. I had just installed the update, so all mods were disabled.

I was unable to replicate the bug a second time, so no video, but here's the config and save file.
