    Computer keeps changing volume/audio sources when alt tabbing


    It's been going on for a while now. whenever I switch to a different application, my audio will either lower/grow or change audio sources or whatever it is. I believe it is audio sources because i compared it and it seems that the audio is the same as when i alt tab as when i change audio sources. I was wondering on how to fix this because it gets really annoying since I alt tab a lot and i just hear a lot of cutting and it just annoys me. Thanks much.gmail: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

  2. The sound volume keeps changing when alt tabing??

    Hi....

    I have this kind of problem that keeps on bothering me every time...

    is about the sound that randomly changes when I alt tab...

    Like, I was listening to my music on my application (Groove Music) and so on... and I want to alt tab to do other stuff, then suddenly the music that I've been listening was decrease or the bass of the music or something? so I alt tab to go back to the application
    and check, and then the music goes back to original volume and when I alt tab again it goes back..... again and again it keeps repeating..?

    It all started when I update driver to latest in device manager which is the "speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)" under audio inputs and outputs

    I don't know which of the two (Realtek High Definition Audio) or (Groove Music) had a problem?

    Sorry about my wrong grammar and stuff xD

    Please Help

    Thank you in Advance!! Computer keeps changing volume/audio sources when alt tabbing :D

    Audio sources default / startup volume

    The audio is integrated on my Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0 motherboard and is listed as Realtek ALC 892 8-channel high definition audio CODEC. The problem occurs randomly, but I think I sometimes see a correlation with opening a new browser tab. I run both Firefox and Chrome concurrently, and both are up-to-date. The last time it seemed to have occurred with opening a new tab in Firefox, but as I said, it often happens randomly. Event viewer is not logging any Firefox or Chrome errors.

    From the crash information I posted above, it appears that it is a Windows fault rather than an application as suggested by the error fault information, which is why I'm looking for a possible work around. Event viewer show the earliest error occurred on 4/14/2017 and was uploaded via error reporting to Microsoft. I was hoping to find a way to keep the affected input channels from coming back on to the (loud!) speaker level I use for other other audio input sources. The volume mixer's channels come back on to the speaker level setting, not to the top end of the channel's volume slider. Not all slider volumes are affected when this happens. The line in channel always does it, but system sounds and email (Thunderbird) channels are usually not affected.

    alt + tab not working

    Just found a really cool way to make alt+tab INSTANT!!!

    In the launch options write the following: -windowed -noborder

    This play exactly the same as fullscreen but now you dont have to wait 30 f*@!ing seconds to alt+tab back in!

    Also you don't get the little purple/black checkered effect (only in Source games) from alt+tabbing in fullscreen.
