trigger_soundscape is a brush entity available in all 
Source games. It automatically triggers an env_soundscape_triggerable whenever a player is inside its volume and not triggering any other soundscape entities. Something to take into consideration is that env_soundscape_triggerable will still act like regular env_soundscape which means it can be activated when getting into its line of sight and specified radius, so it should be placed somewhere out of reach of the player if this behavior is undesired.
Important:This is a preserved entity in .If the game has round restart mechanics this entity may not behave as expected:

Keyvalues
- Soundscape (soundscape) <targetname>
- Targetname of the env_soundscape_triggerable that this brush triggers.
- Risk of Confusion:Not to be confused with the actual soundscape that the env_soundscape_triggerable then plays.
- StartDisabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>
- If true starts disabled
Warning:Doesn't use filters or flags to determine whether the soundscape should be activated or not. Inputs
- Enable / Disable / Toggle
- Enables, disables or toggles the trigger. Act of disabling it doesn't end the soundscape if it's already playing.
- Important:Make sure to take into consideration that this is preserved entity so the effect of enabling or disabling will carry over during restart
Note:As this entity is derived from CBaseTrigger it has regular trigger properties available. Filters and flags work on outputs but because this is a preserved entity and the filters are not, the filter will be lost upon round restart and not set up again so it's not advised to be used for those purposes as regular triggers are available.
