Are you claiming a change in behavior of a command (*command* not
keypress)?
I don't think amything checked in recently could do that. Can you find
out if there has been a change in a command's behavior since 0.8.16
(even if it only caused by a change to the default mode, it would be
good to understand the situation).
One thing that has been niggling me is that I suspect the duration sound
effects are emitted without option to turn them off. But I haven't
checked this (and so much more...). It could probably be controlled by
the immediate_playback pref?
