Obnoxious effect audio since patch.

I am playing through Reaper's March, and ever since the patch there is this constant intermittent extremely low pitch sound, like a whoosh, almost like the sound when you start a teleport, that constantly plays in the background.

I have determined it is part of the "effects" slider sounds, which I have had to leave off due to this being so incredibly obnoxious and distracting. This did NOT happen before the patch.

Why do you guys have to screw with so many of the little details that were causing no problems? If it isn't broken, don't fix it!

By the way the new quest and Lightning Splash sounds are really irritating as well. What compelled you to go back and change such random things mid-launch?

    Seriously no one else has noticed this?

    Have you isolated what is causing it?

    Does it happen when you are near others? Related: does it increase in frequency or intensity as you approach a town?

    Do you have any pets, does it disappear if you dismiss them?

    Do you have a mount? If not, do you think it could be related to the new mount sound?

    Do you have any quest-related or unknown buffs on you?

    Does it disappear if you leave Reaper's March or enter a dungeon?

    Perhaps it is a new sound effect from a player ability like one of the Sorc Bolt Escape morphs?
