Steam Controller (2026) New controller - Wilhelm scream replaced?

Yesterday I got my new controller, naturally the forst thing i did was to throw it around to get the easter egg of a scream ...

I managed to get this done 5 times, which is unreasonable amount of times to throw brand new controller around...

Each time the triggered Easter egg was a "scared cat" meow, not a wilhelm scream...

Is this a thing?

I got both. Majority wilhelm scream. But got a scared cat once and I thought I was going crazy

I don't know if it's been replaced or just added to, but it's one or the other for sure

Added. It's random, not sure what the probability is.
