Has it always been this bad?

I've been noticing lately that sound effects do not load correctly when going into different areas. For example, you can hear crickets at night when you are outside. However, when you go into a building, the sound continues. Go back outside, same thing. Another example is a place like Freeside where you can hear things in the distance such as broken bottles, screams, talking, etc. Sounds pretty cool. However, if you leave Freeside and wander far into the Mojave Wasteland, you can still hear it. The sound files are not loading correctly. This possibly has always happened and I just didn't notice but lately I've been more attuned to the sound and its getting annoying.

I play on a 360 so any mod/fixes won't work for me. However, this really needs to be patched.

Also, if you save the game, and re-load it, the sound is fixed (at least until you go into a new loading area).

I noticed that too when fast traveling from the strip.. the sound of the strip stayed with me until I loaded into a new area. As far as I have noticed it only happens when fast traveling.
This didn't happen before Honest Hearts as far as I know.

There's still a bunch of sound problems that I feel could be fixed. like the double opening/closing ammo box sound or the old beat up ammo box having no sound attached to it. My guy still screams like a girl from time to time too.

Also.. just wondering. Are they ever going to fix the annoying gltichy arm raising problem? I mostly play sneaky, sniper characters and it really is annoying and happens almost constantly. It doesn't seem to happen when not in sneak so maybe most people play run and gun characters or something and just don't notice it.
