Regional Barriers
Some sounds on TikTok are geo-based, which means they are available in some areas and unavailable in others. Sometimes, audio becomes available for some time in an area but eventually goes out of use in that area.

Copyright Issues
Sometimes, Tiktok silences your video because it finds copyright issues in it. This is not the case with just your video, but all the Tiktokers who have created videos on the sound face such issues.
