Is the issue present in the latest release? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest release.
Yes, 2412.
If the issue isn't present in the latest release, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)
I rolled back Dolphin using Flatpak. The first affected version i've found is 2409. The last non-affected version is cc3ff34 (Flatpak commit 506770e1dc089fe095e6dccf082dd174c8fab46a2ef87135438be73dbeb5e1c2). I did not test every version in between the ones previously mentioned.

I can't repro this, even with a fresh user directory.
Do you wish a screen recording demonstrating the issue? Or other additional information? Logs? Come on, i‘m a dev by trade! Hit me!

Any additional information would be helpful. Could be a difference between PAL/NTSC versions of the game. I don't think logs would have anything too interesting, but a recording might give some hints. Your dolphin config files or screenshots of your settings might help as well in case something non-standard is set that can affect audio.

Little update:
In order to reproduce the bug, i updated Dolphin back to the latest version and downloaded a copy of Sims Bustin Out from the USA. However the bug did not occur again. The sound is as flawless as it's been before.
So i think we can close this ticket.
