Stun Validation creates hit scream sound. Why?

Is this happening to anyone else? Kinda confusing when I think I got the hit, look for a body, only to find that the survivor is now long gone. I'd be fine if the scream sound didn't happen.

Patch 5.1.0 - 27 July 2021

TECHNICAL UPDATES

Stun validation has been added to the hit validator. If a Killer has a pending stun on the server, the server will reject the hit. This will be most noticeably in situations such as a Killer who is attacking at the same time a survivor is throwing a pallet, and it should reduce instances where survivors appear to take damage after stunning a Killer.

    it's because the blood splat and survivor scream is processed client side before the validation occurs.

    Is this working as intended?

    its rather unsatisfactory, but it was supposed to prevent the successful hit sfx and vfx.

    I usually don't experience that sound since I play Nemesis, but on Demo it happens more than I would like.

    I see. I get the sound effect a lot on various killers.
