Question Music Playing without any Audio Source

When I play my project in edit mode (not build), I hear background music, but I don't have any audio sources in the scene. I've checked every script and object but couldn't figure out where it's coming from, and deleted and reimported the audio clips even with different names, to no avail. Any ideas as how I should stop the music?

 

You either find out what asset do the sound or if it isn't a problem, you can just mute it in the toolbar:
https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ViewModes.html Mute audio is next to the "light" button.

 

you have autoplay turned on in the inspector

 

Drag this script onto a gameobject in your scene, and it will highlight all the gameobjects in the hierarchy that have audiosource components. Unless the audiosource components are added, played and destroyed faster than the checks happen, but that shouldn't be applicable in this case.

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using System.Linq;
4. using UnityEngine;
5. using UnityEditor;
6.  
7. public class FindAllAudiosources : MonoBehaviour
8. {
9.     // Start is called before the first frame update
10.     void Start()
11.     {
12.         StartCoroutine(PingInHierarchy<AudioSource>());
13.     }
14.  
15.     private IEnumerator PingInHierarchy<T>() where T: Object
16.     {
17.         while (true)
18.         {
19.             List<T> objectsToPing = GameObject.FindObjectsOfType<T>().ToList();
20.  
21.             foreach (var obj in objectsToPing)
22.             {
23.                 EditorGUIUtility.PingObject(obj);
24.                 yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
25.             }
26.  
27.             yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
28.         }
29.     }
30. }
31.  

 

Pulling up the Profiler's Audio Module also helps me a ton!

It shows what is playing in what group, and you can ping both the playing gameobject and it's clip in the hierarchy & project window.
