Windows 10: Windows 10 Volume Changes Randomly

Not sure when this problem started but it's been within the last six or seven months 10/2019 - 05/2020. It's possible it happened after a Windows 10 update. I would roll it back if I knew.


System volume randomly fluctuates while listening to any audio source internet streaming Sirius/XM or YouTube Music, or iTunes installed on my computer through external speakers Bose through the 3.5 mm speaker jack on rear panel AND the 3.5 mm head phone jack in the front. The problem also occurs using Bluetooth connected head phones.


At times I can listen for hours without it occurring but then it comes and is VERY annoying; to the point where listening to anything on my computer is useless. It has been happening for three hours this morning 5/12/2020.


I have performed the following over the last few months:

• Adjusted Sound settings by disabling sound enhancements and all other variations of Sound Settings
• Changed audio drivers see below
• Disabled Communications setting "Do Nothing"
• Checked keyboard volume buttons and re-seated USB dongle.
• I have done whatever steps the below hyperlink suggests in addition to other 'tech' websites.

I do not believe this to be a specific PC model and software packages/drivers issue since on this very website the problem can be seen over a five year period from 4269 users https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...41-eddb-4b71-9619-448f0f9c0d58?auth=1&page=15


Computer: HP Pavilion Desktop 595-p0084

OS: Windows 10 Home 64 Bit Ver. 10.0.18363 Build 18363

Sound Drivers Attempted:

• High Definition Audio Device Ver. 10.0.18362.356 Microsoft
• Realtek High Definition Audio Ver. 6.0.1.7016 8/13/2013 the Dell Drivers mentioned in the link above
• Realtek High Definition Audio Ver. 6.0.8924.1 3/26/2020 and previous versions

I will post this at HPs website as well as Realteks if possible.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Audio volume changes up and down randomly

The audio volume cycles up and down on my computer. I notice this a lot on YouTube videos. I'm running Windows 10 on an Acer computer. I have tried many of the suggestions on this thread: Windows 10 Volume Problem (Volume Randomly Changes).
Has Microsoft responded with a solution? Thanks.

 

Volume Randomly Changing.


So when i play music on Spotify while playing a game, my volume randomly goes up and down, It only stops if i mute all of the sounds of the game, i've looked and looked in all the settings, changed the communications tab to "do nothing" and it still wants to change my volume, is there a specific guide someone can link me to? I would like to get this resovled.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
