Bedrock/playsound block.bamboo_wood.break block @p

Frequently asked questions

How do I play the block.bamboo_wood.break sound in Minecraft?
Enable cheats or use OP, open chat with T or /, and run /playsound block.bamboo_wood.break block @p. The sound plays at your position for the nearest player. Change @p to @a to play it for everyone on the server.
What is the source argument in /playsound?
The source controls which audio channel plays the sound, matching the player's per-category volume slider. Valid sources are: master, music, record, weather, block, hostile, neutral, player, ambient, and voice. The block.bamboo_wood.break sound defaults to block. Use master if you're unsure — it always plays.
Does /playsound work on Bedrock Edition?
Yes — the /playsound command syntax is identical on Java and Bedrock. Sound IDs are the same across editions for most standard sounds. Run the command in chat or from a command block.
Why can't I hear the sound after running /playsound?
Check that your block volume slider isn't muted in Sound Settings. If the sound still doesn't play, try swapping the source to master: /playsound block.bamboo_wood.break master @p. Some sounds are positional and require you to be close to the target coordinates.
