MTG Arena is known for its immersive sound ambiance that brings the classic trading card game to life. When you play a Swamp card, you can hear crickets chirping. Mountain cards sound like cracking lava, and Forest cards are accompanied by birdsong. These details make MTG Arena a memorable experience, but there are times when this feature goes rogue. Here's how to fix the woosh sound effect bug on MTG Arena.

How do you stop the woosh sound effect bug in MTG Arena?

The Gix causes this bug, Yawgmoth Praetor Exquisite Sleeve reward on the Brothers' War Mastery pass. If you hover over the icon for this item, the reward preview flashes on and off, and a woosh sound effect plays on repeat. This sound does not stop when you queue for a match or select a different menu tab. The only surefire way to stop this audio bug is by restarting MTG Arena, although there is a way to temporarily silence the sound.

If you're in the middle of a match and can't afford to restart your game, press ESC and select Audio. Locate the SFX slider and turn it down to 0%. Unfortunately, this will also mute the individual card sound effects, but it does stop the incessant wooshing audio. After your match is complete, restart MTG Arena, and the problem should be fixed.

Since this bug prevents you from viewing the card sleeve preview, here is an image of the Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor sleeve. This item does not appear in the Sleeves section of the shop, so until this preview issue is fixed, the only way to see it in full detail is through external images.
