[Feature]: reduce how often sounds are played

[Crare]

Request Description

for example if I have dogs running around me or villagers near me, they constantly make noise. It can get noisy very fast. But I still want to have some sounds.
It would be nice to reduce how often they can make sounds. It would be nice to be able to set it to like once a 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 seconds timeout for the sounds. i.e. block/limit the sounds if they come too often.

maybe option to limit how often each type of entity can make sounds. you still want to hear the hostile mobs, but other animals could stay less noisy for example.

Certainly an interesting idea, and one to consider for the future. This would take a while to implement though, so I won't promise anything soon given development has stalled a bit.

It wouldn't be per-entity but instead per-sound, since unfortunately the sound system doesn't track the origin of the sounds we're dealing with.

per sound would be fine too. as it would reduce hearing the same sounds over and over again in short session.
