Do any games have new title music in their updates? Would be something to note as well if so. (sce_sys/snd0.at9)

That should be expected behavior if no game updates contain new title music; the emulator shouldn't really care for title music from updates if they aren't to be expected in the first place.

I feel like if any game were to change title music, it would be Minecraft. I know they did that whole background image change back on the PS3 with v1.81(?), dunno if that was in line with any Minecraft PS4 Edition update but probably a good starting point if any for anyone who'd wanna perfect shadPS4 down to a T lol
