    Answer 2

    How recently have you tried this? A squid death sound does exist. If you are playing a specifically chosen version of Minecraft (not latest version), using mods, or have not formatted the command correctly, the death sound may not occur. The sound itself, in my opinion sounds like Dr. Zoidberg ( Lobster-man alien from Futurama) blowing his nose/facial tentacles.

    Answer 3

    /playsound minecraft:entity.squid.death @p X Y Z (source) (volume) (pitch) (minvolume)

    The volume and XYZ is required in the version im using so you can try this and the source is what the sound is masked as comng from so you can also turn down the volume of the playsound in the settings.
