I've moved it all the way to zero but there are still environmental sounds.

Somewhat confirmed I can clearly hear wind with all sliders but master down to min.

Cannot lower ambient volume, regardless of slider position.

PLEASE! Make a sound option to turn off wind noise/ambient noise or make a separate slider for that. Played for a couple of hours now and that "white noise" is driving me mad.

Great game so far though aside from that torture. Looking forward to more content.

The constant noise of the wind is so abrasive it makes me enjoy the game much more if i turn off the sound entirely.

my use case commenting on this topic is that I listen to other music or podcasts while playing.Having the UI sounds and workshop sounds is nice. Sadly I do turn down the very excellent in game music. But unfortunately the water and wind sounds are less delightful. This is a thematically appropriate suggestion because beavers hate the sound of running water.

It is now November 2022, constant wind noise still a problem.

Yes. A way to disable the wind noise would be great. It only goes away when zoomed all the way in. The high pitched noises in the wind sound like something you might hear in a high mountain pass and makes no sense in this game. This is the second most annoying thing in the game.

Please turn the wind howling off. It is very unpleasant noise.
