I have also had this bug, except I play on PC. So, this is affecting multiple platforms.
It occurred at around 1:30 AM (EST) today, Aug 04, 2022.
DESCRIPTION
Step 1 : Boot the game on PC
Step 2 : Play as survivor in a public match with crossplay on, but no cross-platform players.
Step 3: Go to Mount Ormond (offering burnt).
Step 4 : Killer brings Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance
Step 5 : In-game, a survivor sets up a Boon with both Circle of Healing, and Shadowstep
Step 6 : Three survivors repair one generator within the Boon's radius.
Step 7 : Killer hooks the fourth survivor on a Scourge Hook, while the remaining are still repairing. Notice that the survivors scream (forced off gen by scream animation, and play scream audio) when the survivor is hooked.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- I played Feng Min with: Prove Thyself, Hope, Streetwise (all T-III), and Built to Last (T-I), Green Medkit with Abdominal Patch & Gauze, and a Frightful Flan offering.
- Killer played Blight with: BBQ and Chili, Hex: Blood Favor, Hex: Ruin, and Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance (all T-III). (I don't recognize his addons, and forgot to check them before leaving the postgame screen).
- A fellow survivor (Jeff) brought: Boon: Circle of Healing, Boon: Shadowstep, Distortion (all T-III), and Lithe (T-I).
- Map: Mount Ormond. Another survivor burned an Ormond offering (Mikaela).
- The fourth survivor (Jonah) was the one hooked.
- The killer did not immediately come to the generator, and we got the unhook safely, indicating he may not have seen or heard the screams.
- Issue only happened once. I don't know if that was because the killer only hooked on a Scourge Hook once, or if the circumstances were right only that once. I do not recall getting hit by Pain Resonance at any other time in that match.
- Note: the Killer's Ruin and Blood Favor had already been cleansed when the issue happened.
- This was the last game that I played before copying my logs to submit here.
DOCUMENTS TO ADD
Attached is my game log, and a screenshot of the postgame scoreboard.
Devs, feel free to DM me for more info if required.

The "play as survivor" isn't a requirement since playing as killer you can hear the screams as well. You don't get the notification but if you know rough whereabouts of some survivors, you can guess which gen regressed.

I thought survivors weren't supposed to make any noise from pain resonance?
I looked at the patch notes and it says they aren't supposed to so I think this is a bug that needs to be fixed.

It's a known issue, yet Killers still use that perk.
EDIT : Perks that are bugged should be disabled until they bring a hotfix in the meantime.

This is not a bug. As of patch 6.1.2/6.1.3, Pain Resonance's ability to make the Survivors scream & interrupt repairs was reintroduced, but still does not give the Killer a visual notification.
1 -
It says that it does not notify killers with a scream, when in reality it does. I don't think this is intended.
0 -
The notification is not the audio. The notification is the Rancor/Infectious Fright effect. There is no bug,go home.
0 -
Surely it should just kick them off it without having the survivor scream, no?
1 -
no. scream is intended as that's the "kick survivor off". the part removed is not "scream" but "reveal their location to you"
1 -
That's just non sense because 99% of Killers running Pain Res also run Dead Man Switch because they synergize too well.
So even if Killers don't get the notification for Pain Res, they just know which gen exploded thanks to DMS.
Bloody absurd.

I don’t know if this is even intended or not, but it’s stupid either way imo. Even if the killer can’t see where the survivors screamed, you can often infer which gen regressed based off it, especially since scream sounds are different for each survivor.

That's unclear from the patch notes. Besides, the animation can definitely be separated from the scream, we've all seen at least one Feng Min trying to loop shack while holding her head. They could easily force the animation, and the sparks, without forcing the audio.
