    Communications tab set to do nothing and my volume is still lowering when i access...


    I have spent the better part of 2 hours trying to find a fix for this, short of factory resetting my computer i feel like i have tried everything.

    I turned off the communications tab and set it to do nothing when i enter a call (which it thinks my games are calls..) i have turned it back on and off and restarted my computer 6 times trying different combinations but it still keeps my volume lowered by 80%

    I have made sure that no apps can take control of my audio devices (both mic and headset) and i only have one device available for output which i set as my default.

    I also attempted to update the drivers which did not help as well. Im at a loss and i just dont know what to do. The only thing i have been able to do is turn the volume near max but once the game is over and it no longer has access to my mic the game sound is nearly deafening.

    I am using a sony wh-ch700n bluetooth headset and am on the latest version of windows. Any extra ideas would be very much appreciated.

  2. Communication settings say "Do Nothing", but the stupid feature still lowers the volume

    I don't have this problem with Skype because I don't use it, but even though OBS has got absolutely nothing to do with communication, it still lowers the volume when I open it. I have set the Communication Settings to Do Nothing, DO NOTHING, but it still
    only knows how to lower the volume by 80%. I'd like to actually hear things when I record for god sake. Awful feature to begin with.
