Windows 10: Alarm audio levels and specific application audio levels

I use the Windows alarm every morning to wake me up and at my normal audio of 20 it just doesn't cut it, so every night I have to turn my volume up all the way and turn down other applications that use audio to keep them at normal levels, however, it seems like having the overall volume at 100 and the applications at 20 is not the same volume as the applications being at 100 and the overall audio being at 20, which I thought was a little strange, the applications have to be around 8 volume to be close to their original volume. Overall that whole process it tedious and annoying, is there any wa

Low Audio Levels


While listening to any audio from any application (browser, media player, etc.), the audio levels of the specific application do not match the level of the "Device".

To better explain what I mean, have a look at the attached picture showing you the audio level of Chrome playing music and compare the level to the levels under "Device" (that's my Speakers). Although both are set at the same level, the audio that plays through Chrome is slightly lower (indicated by the green bar). How can I achieve the maximum audio from my applications?

I have installed the Realtek HD driver 6.0.1.7680 and noticed that unchecking the box for "Loudness Equalization" improves the audio levels to some extent for some tracks but the levels are still not the same. Should the levels be the same?

Should this setting (Loudness Equalization) be checked at all times? I noticed that when playing some tracks, this setting helps but for some other tracks, it is better to keep this setting unchecked as I notice that keeping it unchecked increases the volume and sounds much better.

 

Adaptive Audio Levels

Is there a way for audio levels to change according to the devices connected or plugged in?

ie: If I connect headphones via the jack, audio levels will adjust to previous "headphone" levels, instead of the master level.
