Looting thunk noise

Since Blackwood launch, getting a new sound when looting multiple items but only sometimes. A thunk or kathunk sound effect.

Not sure if base game or addon, but definitely started with Blackwood. Weirdest thing is seems to be sort of cooldown as it is sometimes only, and not always - e.g. sometimes looting bodies at dolmens gives the loud thunk, sometimes not. Same for all other places - overland, delves, etc - get this new sound effect at times but not always for any given location, situation.

Only loot addon I use is dustman and it is not it. Thought might be UI addon but LUI author says no change made.

Before I laboriously go through 1 addon at time to isolate, anyone by chance know what popular addon might have added this new sound effect?

    I've noticed it on PS4, where there are no add-ons. I don't know if it signifies gear or mats that I loot as there is no pattern to it

    They added something like that to the daily rewards as well. I guess I'll get used to it...

    Not only that thunk sound but I swear I hear a rev of a chainsaw like rev rev in the background when entering delves. It's very annoying it's so much in the background I thought there are no chainsaws in ESO!

    On the topic of odd sounds, if you listen close you can hear a duck quacking when changing previews at the clothing or crown store, and the magical charge ability from the Psijic tree sounds like dipping into a hot tar bucket with a spatula. :p

    In another thread ZOS mentioned that the "Boy-yoing" sound was being reviewed and will be patched later as this was not intended.

    Maybe this "thunk" sound was also not intended and will be patched at the same time.

    I noticed the thunk didn't happen all the time. I assumed it was when I looted something that went into my craft bag, but I didn't pay enough attention to confirm.
