Audio in 1.20.2 is noticeably lower quality than in any previous versions

Try it ingame, go into 1.20 and break blocks, listen to music discs, and etc. It will sound completely normal. Hop into 1.20.2+ and the audio is muffled, and sounds terrible. This is not an issue with my device, as my audio in other games, videos, and media sounds normal. I hope this gets resolved in the next snapshot, or in a small patch because the audio is noticeably worse.
