New/custom sounds for player?

[Silene]

I'm bumping this thread because I have the exact same problem, and editing the .snt does not appear to fix anything. I've replaced the files, tried assigning different files, tried setting the volume to zero... no luck.

I'd love to play this game, but just as with AttackBadger, the gnashing as soon as the player enters darkness completely breaks my immersion (as well as making me nauseous and my teeth hurt).

I have the game on Steam, in case that's a different situation than retail...

Launching the game after trying every variable for modding the files directly and still hearing that terrible sound has discouraged me; I would really love to experience this game, as I loved Penumbra, but am afraid I cannot, with these terrible gnashing sounds (sanity_flick[1-5].ogg)...
