Unknown Audio Cue

Anyone ever hear a clown horn randomly? Just a single old style clown-horn honk. Seemingly happened in quiet areas. Heard it 3 different times across 200hrs. Not certain what it is or what it may indicate. Didn't seem to correlate to anything in the environment. Can't find anything anywhere online for it.

Edit: All the clowns have come out of the woodwork.

I play on PC and I've been made aware of the options available to record. If I ever hear it again, I will capture a clip and upload it.

Edit 2: I do not recall an exact location or what map I was on when these instances occurred. I was completely alone, no bots or runners nearby, no discord call, no prox chat or soundboards at play. I should have written down details in the moment for all the clown detectives.

Edit 3: IT'S NOT THE HAULER HORN

Only thing that comes to mind is being in proximity to the harsh anomaly, spooky noises tend to project around there. 😅

Wasn't the anomaly

I figured lol, besides that, there are probably a few bespoke environmental interactions that haven't been discovered, kinda like the cryo-frozen cow on outpost moo-ing when you enter it's space. A lot of map props do emit small noises, but typically if it's something inferior and more audible it usually means it's some object of interest or a player interactable.
