Problem with the horn!

I drove the wife's '8' AT yesterday and when some fool turned into my lane and promptly slowed down to a stop causing me to have to brake hard, I sounded the horn to urge them to quickly speed up to match the traffic flow.. but instead of the usual loud 'honk' it made this strange 'strangled duck' sound....... I tested it later and it sounded ok.. like back to normal... Anyone else had any issues with the horn?

Cheers...
