Windows 10: HELP! Inconsistent Volume Levels between Device Speaker and Headphones/Speaker. (I keep...

There are numerous times that I've blown out my eardrums at this point. Generally, I think that everyone, including me, keeps their volume levels at a comfortable level of 20-25/100 regardless if you're using the device speaker or headphones/earphones for any device, may it be a phone, a tablet, or a laptop. In my case however, I have a Dell XPS 15 7590 and when the system volume in the volume mixer is equivalent to all the other apps while using an earphone/headphone, I would have to lower the volume to 5-10/100 in order to achieve a comfortable noise level. Additionally, the change in noise level per number increase/decrease is way too drastic so you wont really find a comfortable level. The work around is to mess around with the volume levels in the volume mixer...the problem now is that when I switch over to my laptop speakers, the noise level would be too low even at max so I would have to re-tinker with volume mixer. You can see how you can blow out your eardrums accidentally and how inconvenient it is to be tinkering with the volume levels in the mixer every single time you switch. Am I the only one experiencing this? Is there a solution to this stupid problem?? Something like a volume mixer profile feature for device speakers and headphones/earphones???? This is just one of the few bugs I've been trying to fix on this laptop. Really makes me want to buy a mac instead....

Volumes in my laptop speaker and headphones are at different levels

The sound volume in my laptop speaker and headphones are at different levels. For example if I have a
speaker volume at 20%, then I plug in the headphones, it could be something like 70%. When I disconnect the headphones, the speaker volume gets back to 20%
