    This should really be supported! It's 2022 please :cI'm not able to find a suggestions page, so I will post this here but yeah. I would like to see my pretty Modernflyouts widget for album covers appear when I change volume! I'm going to end up making a macro to do this, but i don't see why it's not supported from the jump. Mac is ahead of us on HID devices over a decade, 12 years at least!!Linux can probably do it too, those nerds. Anyway, that's it.

    :)

    Earbud volume buttons not changing volume

    I've plugged in wired earbuds to my Surface Laptop 1. When I click the audio buttons on my earbuds to make the volume go up or down, there is no change being reflected. If I change the audio via my keyboard or slider on my laptop, then I can hear the audio
    change in my earbuds, so it seems like it's only the buttons on the earbuds not working. These are new earbuds, so I don't think it is a hardware problem.

  3. Keyboard Volume Keys not working while in-game

    I happen to have used the Tt Challenger Pro keyboard in the past, and the volume keys worked flawlessly in every game, so it's indeed a weird problem. I would suggest the same thing sneekypeet suggested, using the keyboard software and assign this function to a hotkey, but you said that didn't work either, so yeah...

    Whenever I pause a video the volume jumps up by 10%

    I often watch videos or listen to music while I play video games (the videos would be on my second monitor) and I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 yesterday. Today whenever I pause a video, song or whenever the next video in the playlist begins the
    loudness of the audio seems to jump by 10% (from 20 to 30) despite not changing in the volume mixer itself.

    My drivers are up to date I've even reinstalled them. Any idea why this happens?

    This happens on Windows media player, the "Movie and TV" as well as the music apps provided by windows 10 as well as youtube via google chrome, edge and firefox.

    Once I hit my volume up or volume down keys on my keyboard the volume returns to the level it should be at.
