I have an odd issue appearing in Oblivion since today and so far no luck with any solutions. I use the Alt + W combination for running but when I hold Alt, I hear that type of sound in my game that normally occurs in Windows e.g. if you're looking for some word with the CTRL+F command and end up with no results. So this sound appears each time I click on Alt and it doesn't go away until game eventually freezes for a few seconds.

I tested Alt + W in Skyrim and in Fallout, I use the same combination for running, and pressing Alt there doesn't produce any windows-related sounds. If I change Alt for another command in OB, it works fine, but if I press Alt for some reason, even if it's not assigned to any command, I hear this sound too. If I press Alt in the main menu, I don't hear it, though.

Any ideas?

My best explanation so far is that this annoying ding sound is a late-appearing bug of some mod. It could be related to the Druid Mod which I have enabled in Oberon's game since Day 1 though he never really used any of its features.

However, one of this mod's features is that it allows shapeshifting to some extent and I found a lone comment on Nexus, saying that this mod permanently caused his shift button (in his case he used shift for running) to let out the ding sound and it also appeared some time after it was installed and didn't go away even when uninstalled. I contacted this guy but since the post is a few years old, maybe I won't get the reply.

The good news is that the bug is gone on all new test characters which I started with various mod combinations.
