Infinite Sound Playback During Multiplayer Mission Join

Connection_Issue Sound

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have a friend host a multiplayer mission and start causing a bunch of noises - call resupplies, shoot weapons, etc.
2. Join the game while the team is making the sounds.
3. See if any sounds keep playing infinitely. This may be inconsistent, I am not sure.

Explanation

When joining a multiplayer mission, some sounds can continue playing forever. I think this happens if the affected sound is playing at some specific moment during the join process.

This most often happens with the sound of falling resupplies or personal drop pods, but I have also encountered infinitely shooting turret sounds or infinitely shooting scout GK2 sounds. The sound continues to play in the same location.

I am not sure whether moving far enough away and coming back will make the sound finally stop playing.
