    Windows 10 volume slider and mute button not working on wireless not bluetooth headsets


    Hi! I own two different wireless headsets for which the windows sound control does not work changing volume or muting, the volume always stays the same. So thisis the same volume as thisIf I change the volume in the sound mixer for separate programs it works as expected, so only the master volume does nothing:For other devices, e.g. bluetooth headphones, wired speakers, monitor speakers, etc. everything works as expected.I already tried every fix I could find online, for example this or this, but nothing works. I had the same problem on my old pc, where this problem started oc

  2. Bluetooth headset works but i can't use Windows volume to control it

    Hi,

    I have a Sony Gold Wireless headset and it works perfectly fine, the only issue is that the windows volume Control (the slide in the task bark) doesn't affect it at all. So in order to change the volume i have to either use the built-in buttons of the headset, or whatever software am currently using, this is not a critical issue but am very used to the volume buttons i have in the keyboard (specially the "Mute" button).

    What i tried so far :
    Making it the default playback device :

    Enabling bluetooth services :

    I also tried using the "troubleshoot tool" and updating the driver, nothing solved this issue, because like i said, the headset is playing Sound correctly, its just that somehow it overwrite windows sound control or something.
    I also did some comparison with my Razer headset and i noticed something a bit weird,

    In my other Windows-10 pc, when playing AC/DC - Highway to hell solo on full volume, the playback device volume bars looks like this :

    Playing the exact same song from the exact same source (Spotify) with full volume and also with the Razer headset, the volume bars don't get passed "4-5 bars" even thought that in my ears it's as loud as the other computer :

    And for the sony Headset, it shows the same result in the "bad" and "good" PC (can't pass 4-5 bars)

    I have no idea if this can help or even if it has any meaning but I just noticed that its kinda weird, even when i use the speakers the volume bars are always limited to "4-5 bars".

    But again, my main issue is that i want this slider to work :

    Cause even that its set to Mute, Windows is still doing a tons of Sound.


    Edit :

    Another thing that i forgot, using the volume mixer has some strange results too, changing the volume of an individual software works perfectly, in this screenshot

    I was able to reduce Spotify volume to ~30%.

    Then i took it back to match main system volume (100%) and then reduced the whole System volume

    and as always, absolutely no effect, even when its muted.


    Thank you

    Volume Slider not working with headphones

    When I use my wireless headphones with my PC (with a bluetooth dongle), the volume is stuck at 66, and moving the volume slider does nothing except for when I mute the volume. I've been using my headphones for 6 months but this problem just started happening
    today.

    Windows volume control slider does not affect headset

    I have a Sony Gold Wireless Headset that I have been using for quite a few months now, and until yesterday they had worked flawlessly. Yesterday, I was messing around with options trying to do something and now the volume slider does not affect the headsets
    output volume. It says I am changing the volume for "Sony Headset (Wireless Stereo Headset)" but the volume does not change unless I do it manually on the headset. For months, I was able to control the volume on the PC itself. Any help would be fantastic!

    PS, This problem was happening before I upgraded to Windows 10, so the upgrade is not the issue.
