OK, so everyone is going to rush and call this proper behavior and intended behavior and a duplicate of every other time Majong and Minecraft pissed people off to the point where they'd rather watch reruns of Golden Girls than hear this annoying problem...

SO if you mark this as RESOLVED, I'll need to make a bug report for MOJANG itself.

At the very least, please help those of us afflicted with 1.8.1 to get rid of step1.ogg and step2.ogg since it would seem the launcher replaces them every time.

And ANYONE who says this is normal? You obviously don't have a chicken farm and heard what it does when wearing headphones.
