When a basin drains and causes gurgling sounds in other basins -- or the toilet, in this case -- it is usually a sign that a vent pipe is clogged or obstructed. The air being displaced in the drain pipe of the bathtub has nowhere to go if the vent is clogged and is being forced up through other drain pipes.

Sink drains fine and the toilet flushes but the bathtub fills?
I had this happen to me then eventually my toilet started overflowing the contents of my septic tank. SUCH FUN TO CLEAN!

I now use RidX once a month and it keeps the gurgles at bay.If you are not on a septic system, CALL A PLUMBER ASAP, it could be a back up but having the sewer come back in on you would likely be way worse!the main reason the tub/toilet are effected together is they are the last things on the drain line.
