What's up with my "Play lute" emote?

When I do the "Play lute" emote, I hear a different song then it originally was before.
However, my audience (the players around me) all hear me play the original song.
Anyone knows what's going on?

    The music that comes from the /lute, /flute, /qanun, /esraj, /keyharp and /panflute emotes is client-sided, meaning other players will hear a different song than you do.

    This and I believe the songs you play can depend on where you are.

    Now, this really shocks me. I had no idea. Sometimes multiple people will pull out lutes, drums, etc., and randomly we either get something that goes well together or a cacophony of clashing discordant sounds. All this time at least I thought all the players in the same area were getting to hear the same thing.

    In fact, on Fridays at the luxury vendor I have been in the game and also watching a streamer there at the same time and could have sworn the sounds were the same. I’ll pay closer attention next time.
