Lobby Spectator: Mech engine audio continues to play after leaving the Mech. #178

Happened to discover this bug while looking into Issue #177

When spectating a match, the UI (Map, Team Stats, Name, Paper Dolls) works fine. After entering any Mech using e.g. "1" or "Shift-1", and then leaving the Mech using the "~" key, the engine sounds of the Mech are still played.

Just a note: Tilde (~) behaves differently than (v). I believe Tilde allows you to freelook around the mech you are in without actually leaving the mech. This appears to be intended behavior for this specific command. Use "V" to exit mechs while in spectator mode and you will have all of your spectator UI elements restored and the sounds will go back to normal. You will need to go back into the cockpit and then hit V if you used ~ by accident. These keys are able to be bound to controller buttons as well. I personally NEVER use the Tilde version while casting.
