Windows 10: Volume jumps only when I open this one application

Every single time I click on steam, my volume goes from whatever I had before, to 50. Every time. And I have zero clue how to fix this. It's extremely annoying because when I'm listening to music or talking to friends, they'd go from a fine volume to extremely loud and hurt my ears. I've asked the support team on Steam to help but they said they've never heard of it so they told me to contact windows about it. I've tried everything from disabling and enabling drivers, telling communications to do nothing in the sound settings, updating every driver, and still no difference. This started happening a couple months ago after a windows update. What can I do to fix this extremely annoying glitch??
