SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D affects all players despite GetGame().IsClient() check.

Description

Hello, i'm trying to achieve changing sounds for specific player, for example if he's inside some trigger. But there is a problem even if there is a client check - SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D applies for everyone near player. So it's not clear on which radius it applies, and it will be very useful if we can control SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D for each player.

Not sure if it's bug or by design.

Also it applies to players even if player which activated SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D comes in ~1000m range to another player.

If both players already applied SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D and then comes to each other on distance ~1060m, SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D values got swapped for this players...

Steps To Reproduce

In my case i'm trying to control environment sound for player when he wears headphones.
Code to reproduce:

	override void OnWasAttached( EntityAI parent, int slot_id )
	{
        if (GetGame().IsClient()) {
			GetGame().GetWorld().SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D(0.1, 1);
		}
		super.OnWasAttached( parent, slot_id );
	}

just do it in 1000m radius to another player, or do it and then come to player. SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D - will be applied to him also.

If this behavior is intentional - please add additional optional argument, like local = false to apply it only for specific player.

GetGame().GetWorld().SetExplicitVolumeFactor_EnvSounds2D(0.1, 1, true);
