Don't know if this is still a problem in 1.14.1 but I did look through the patch notes and didn't find anything. Surround sound seems to be a little bit buggy in Minecraft. Even if the action is happening right behind me eg. opening/closing a door, footsteps, anything that plays a sound, it is either so faint I can't hear it or it just straight up doesn't play at all.

What I expected to happen was...:
When either of the actions above happened I expected to hear it.

What actually happened was...:
I didn't hear the 5 creepers "creep" up behind be and I died...

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put on surround sound headphones.
2. Set audio to surround sound if you need to.
3. Easiest way I can come up with doing this is to walk over a pressure plate with a door behind you, the pressure plate triggers the door, and then you won't hear the door at all (yes the door is directly behind you when this happens, if it isn't directly behind you then I guess you still may be able to faintly hear it open/close).
