Windows 10: Suggestion. Remember Volume Level Settings for Bluetooth versus Regular Audio Output.

I sometimes used Bluetooth which turns the regular audio off. However, I have found that I have to change volume settings on video players and web pages like BBC iPlayer. So, maybe remember last volume settings for Bluetooth versus regular audio output.

Fixate output volume 100%

Hello theking2

Im Juliet and Im happy to help you

To ensure that the volume on your PC remains fixed at 100%, you can follow these steps:

1. Locate the volume control icon in the system tray on your PC's taskbar. It is usually represented by a speaker icon. Alternatively, you can access the volume settings by right-clicking on the speaker icon and selecting "Open Volume Mixer" or "Open Sound Settings."

2. Once you open the volume settings, you should see a volume slider. Set it to the maximum level, which is typically represented as 100%. This will set the volume level on your PC to the maximum.

3. Next, make sure your PC's audio output is set to the correct audio device, which, in this case, is the receiver. To do this, right-click on the volume icon and select "Open Sound Settings" or "Playback devices."

4. In the Sound Settings or Playback devices window, you should see a list of audio output devices. Locate your receiver or the audio output device that is connected to your receiver. It might be labeled as the receiver's brand name or as an HDMI or audio output port.

5. Select your receiver or the appropriate audio output device, and make sure it is set as the default audio device. You can usually do this by right-clicking on the device and selecting "Set as Default Device" or "Set as Default Communication Device."

6. Once you have set the receiver as the default audio device, the volume control on your PC should no longer affect the volume level. Instead, the volume will be controlled solely by the receiver. Adjust the volume on the receiver to the desired level.

By following these steps, you should be able to set your PC's volume to 100% and control the volume exclusively on your receiver.

 

Build 1909 not remembering volume levels in the Volume Mixer

I recently updated from 1803 to 1909 and I've noticed that the Volume Mixer does not store volume levels for any apps and instead just resets them to 100% if they are restarted.

This was not an issue I experienced with 1803, I've already tried seeing if it was just an issue with my user profile/registry by testing on a newly created user profile, as well as attempting to fix it by adding a missing registry key as suggested in this reddit post.

I've also tried simpler steps such as reinstalling my audio drivers and using a headset with a USB soundcard (HyperX Cloud II's) but these were also unhelpful.

Any help would be appreciated *Smile

Actually, ignore this - I created the registry key mentioned in the reddit post above under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER, creating the keys in the correct location and restarting my PC fixed the issue.

For anyone else with the same issue just follow the steps in the reddit post given in the OP, i.e. create the following registry key(s) manually:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\LowRegistry\Audio\PolicyConfig\PropertyStore

 

output volume

My suggestion: Get a meter that measures the actual volume being output. Make note of what percentage on the Windows volume control corresponds to what actual physical volume as measured by the meter. Make a list of several places along the way, maybe every 5 or 10 percent and what that corresponds with in real life.
