Windows 10: Audio levels chaning

I'm probably in the wrong category, but I really couldn't find one that would fit the problem.


The sound levels of programs keep changing in the volume mixer.

I've tried disabling Dolby Audio sound leveler and putting the windows communications thingy to do nothing, but nothing seems to be working.

Could it be some program doing this or is does windows have some kind of feature that could be causing it.




For example this time all the programs were set to the volume level of 5, but after some time the windows sounds have been reduced to 0.

This happens randomly sometimes I can see it happening live in the mixer and sometimes when I restart my computer.

No audio in 'Asphalt 7: Heat'

Hi Moezul,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Does the audio work in other applications?

If you are not able to hear the audio in any applications. I would suggest to check with the steps below and see if it resolves your issue.

Steps:

1. Check if the audio driver is updated. Follow the steps mentioned in the article to update audio drivers.
   
   Update drivers in Windows 10
   
2. The issue can occur if the appropriate playback device is not selected. Click the
   Sound icon (bottom right corner of the screen), click Playback device and select the appropriate device from the menu.
   
3. Check the In-game audio settings to confirm if the sound is turned
   on.
   
4. Check the Volume levels in the system's Volume Mixer to confirm that it is not turned
   off and the levels are appropriate. Right click on the Sound icon and select
   Open volume mixer. Adjust the settings as per your requirements.
   

If the audio issue is only with the game, I would suggest to get in touch with the
game developer
to get a confirmation on this.

Thanks,

Peer Samie
