I noticed this morning on Triton Avenue that the spell sound effects went away about halfway through the battle. The battle music was still going, but the sound of the creatures and the spells were gone. I noticed it on both my accounts while fighting Rotting Fodders for the dailies.

Thanks telemwill for noticing this issue! We'll take a look.

Thanks! Be sure to check out Firecat Alley too. Not only were battle sounds cutting out, but I was getting two enemies sharing the same sigil space as well. Also Bastilla Gravewynd threatened me not only when I arrived, but also when I left.
No dialogue sound in mirage, very low battle sound, and no music. Tried adjusting sound from the menu. Tried logging out and in. Additionally all wizards in various places are veering left.
This happened to me in the Savanna too, so I think it is universally a problem. As MrSir1127 stated, it seems to be caused by someone getting on or off a mount or entering a battle near you. In my case the sounds effects are instead played from the battle near you, including spell cast and animation effects.
Ive found this happens in the early areas of krysalis also, WHEN a battle ends nearby, all sounds from my battle are muted. also when other battles start, sometimes those battle sounds are played instead of my battle's sounds.
I have talked to lots of people and the sound cuts out when ever there is a battle near you. it sounds like when someone pops in. then you get to here the other battle sound and not yours. this dose not happen if you are in a dungeon. as soon as your battle is over sound comes back. this has happened to me every place i go.but other than that i love the new look since the update.
This happened to me today in Azteca ( Twin Giants ) spell sound cut off half way through the battle; normal sound was still good ( effects & music ). I was alone in that area, so I don't think other wizards or mounts are responsible.
This happened to me more than once. Mainly in Grizzleheim, in fact, it happened today! The entire time, battle music, no other noise. But I knew all the sounds of the spells cast that round, so I just filled in the blanks.
The missing sound is triggered by a "dismount or mounting impromptu sound" before the entire battle sound cuts out.
The battle sound cuts out for the remainder of the battle and return upon joining a new one.
You can still hear battles beside you (sometimes) though.
This "dismounting sound" doesn't necessarily mean someone is finishing or getting pulled in a battle, but I always seem to hear it (even if empty areas) before the entire battle sound effects cuts out.
The background music is still there though, that remains unaffected.
Also, the camera angles changes from time to time in battle (happened mostly in Colossus Boulevard so far) from an aerial view of said screen to it going completely behind your wizard.

Sparck, this bug seems to effects every battle no matter where you are. Do You know the sound you hear like a quiet "poof!" when you get pulled in to battle? Every battle starts off narmal but the minute you hear that poof! The sounds of battling goes quiet.
Sparck. I'd like to add, this poof sound is also made when you exit the battle but not by fleeing and when you enter the game. It seems like that poof is when the game disconnects you from the battle mode while in battle? However i don't noticed the problem in Marlybone
So prior to the weekly maintenance and even after, there seems to be a reoccurring issue when it comes to sound effects during battle with enemies. When I go into battle, the typical sounds happen: battle music occurs, the sounds of casting spells occur, the actual spells themselves making sounds occur. However there will be random battles that I go into where the sounds just stop. The battle music is happening, but the sounds of casting spells or the spells themselves making noises are silent.
What happens before it goes silent is the sound of somebody doing teleportation or mounting/dismounting. Not the act itself, just the sound. There could be no one around but the sound still happens. I've talked to a few other players who have experienced this same issue for the past few days. Also I don't know if it's world related, I've only experienced in Wizard City so far but I can provide an update via reply when I go to the next world and do a few battles.
Last thing to keep in mind is that this bug doesn't occur for every battle, it's at random. It could happen 1 of every 5 battles, 3 times consecutively and everything in between.
**UPDATE** It does occur on other worlds and I've also just seen one other post that also notes this in the 'Halston's Laboratory' section so it confirms it isn't just me.
It's been happening to me, too. All my wizards, all my worlds. Sometimes with no one near me. I have also shortly thereafter been expelled from the game to my home page, where there's a bug supporter asking me if I want to report a problem. I submitted it. It asked for a ticket # from Mr. Lincoln, which I didn't have, and wasn't provided. Thank you, Darby Dragon Heart
The disappearing battle sounds does not occur as often in less crowded areas.
Also, as I've said in another thread, the other issues such as logging in twice and accessing these message boards by having to reload the link twice still persists.
