Persistent audio bug of DK Seething Fury since rework

There is an extremely tiresome, annoying, energy draining audio bug that keeps happening with DK skill Inferno and its morph Flames of Oblivion, it's a rather loud, low frequency humming/whirring/whooshing/grinding sound, akin to the audio that is persistent on for example Ebon armour. It happens when the skill is used in a rotation against enemies and the audio doesn't stop until changing instances. A solution would be that you delete this audio from the game entirely, because playing as a DK right now actually feels terrible because of it, since it keeps whirring/grinding/humming loudly and doesn't stop, the noise becomes actually nauseating, distracting from questing, and also it drains at least me of energy, making me physically tired when playing - you know how you can produce sleepiness by playing white noise? It's that. And I want it to be addressed and fixed ASAP, please give this a priority.

*Edit; changed the title to better reflect on what causes the bug

    Can verify, also happening on my Dk. Constant audio bug. It’s rather obnoxious.

    After some further testing, I've been able to conclude that the audio comes from the full stack of Seething Fury.

    Please ZOS, delete that "audio clue" for Seething Fury entirely if you can not fix it. Having it loop endlessly is becoming extremely irritating.

    To reiterate: the audio clue bugs out frequently, and keeps looping the Seething Fury sound endlessly even after the stacks drop. It's not possible to get rid of the loud, churning noise without full relog, or changing of zone. This is bad for example in Cyrodiil, where we don't *want* to change zones.

    Currently playing with magDK and can confirm. It's really annoying in Cyrodiil.

    This is still a very annoying problem. Relog is the only way to reset it.

    Please look into fast tracking this audio loop for deletion. Got into new zone - went to kill a vent, audio bug pops. Decided to go clear the Public Dungeon. Audio bug disappeared because it's different instance. Killed 1 boss, audio bug comes back. Cleared public dungeon, went outside, audio bug disappeared because it's another instance. Went to finish a vent. Audio bug back again. This is making the game *extremely* unenjoyable. PLEASE fast track this audio for deletion.

    I know there is also a similar audio bug for something that templar class has, but as I don't main a templar but a dragonknight, I don't encounter it as often.

    PLEASE make this stop.

    Since we're not getting any response on this, I'm going to tag some names so that I know it's at least been seen

    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin

    I don't know who specifically to tag but this has been an issue since the Dragonknight rework, over half a year of consistent Seething Fury audio churning loud and until full relog or change of instance. It's coming to the point I'm considering playing without any audio.

    This bug is terrible! Having this loop without end is really affecting my sanity while playing my DK. ZOS please just delete the audio for Seething Fury. I don't even care about a fix, I don't think any of us do... Just delete it and let us have some peace while we play!!!
