Pretty sure the sounds are a separate issue, since there's also no subtitles.
I can run the current snapshot all I want, but cannot launch any other version (tried back as far as 1.4.7), including old snapshots, using the Java launcher.
Since there is no native launcher for Linux yet, that leaves Linux users unable to play the stable versions at all.
Going into video settings and disabling vsync seems to fix the problem for me. I remember that this was the fix for a similar issue back in version 1.7
I can confirm that this is still a concern in Minecraft version 1.9
This behaviour is also caused by self-moving piston contraptions when ridden by a player.

BlueSansDouze's fix works for single player, but doesn't correctly build a login token for multiplayer.
I restored .minecraft/launcher* from yesterday's backup, and started minecraft using:
java -jar .minecraft/launcher.jar
Lost my key bindings and had to log in again, but everything else is OK, and I'm connected to my server.
If you have a backup, use it.
Jamie, first you need to have taken a backup. Either you already did that yesterday, or you'll need some very exotic physics.
Is it not just drowning?

Still an issue in 1.14
Can somebody please try to confirm my vsync work-around?

Additional information: This is only a bug at night. During the day, the respawn point is set even if you would be too far away to sleep.
