Weird sound error after new update

Bug Reports Engine Bugs
#1

Certain sound doesn’t play anymore, even though it did before.

onSoundLoaded cannot find SoundService Sound : rbxassetid://325182533

relevant function (localscript):

function scrolling()
local effect = Instance.new("Sound",script)
effect.SoundId = "rbxassetid://325182533"
effect.Pitch = math.random(75,85)/100
effect:Play()
effect:Destroy()
end
#2

From my experience it is from the sound being removed before it is finished playing. Doesn’t break anything, but still errors.

TLDR; Don’t play the sound and then immediately destroy it afterwards. Instead, set Sound::PlayOnRemove to true, then destroy the sound.

this, if you need that behaviour use PlayOnRemove.

#5

The sound plays now after changing Sound:Play() to Sound.RemoveOnPlay = true, but the error still prints to console.

#6

Got it. The error message will be changed/fixed to better describe the problem in the future.
Also add a wait to stop the error print.
