Windows 10: Sound Control

All of a sudden my volume goes to 100% by itself. If I turn it down it goes up again. Sometimes I can play with it and it will stop and then while watching video it goes up to 100% by itself. What causes this?

Windows 10 Home, Microsoft Edge. Inspiron 11 3168 notebook from Dell.

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
