(Windows 10) - 'System Sounds' Resets to 100%

I've been having this problem ever since I installed Windows 10. Pretty much, I set the System Sounds slider to 5% in the system volume mixer and randomly it will reset it's self to 100% making notifications very loud.

Aside from re-installing Windows is there anything that can be done to solve this problem?

 

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

 

Windows 11 Volume Mixer not remembering sound levels for "SYSTEM SOUNDS"

Windows 11 Volume Mixer not remembering sound level for System Sounds. I usually set the 'System Sounds' volume level to 5% because I find them annoying but they reset itself to 100% after a restart or randomly while using the PC. I've seen other reports of this exact same issue on this forum and on Reddit and the responses are always the same generic answers like "install latest drivers", "roll back to previous driver", "run SFC /SCANNOW", etc.

Since the launch date of Windows 11 I've been experiencing this problem on three different systems with totally different hardware configurations.

In my main system I'm running Windows 11 Pro 2H22 (Build 22621.819) with latest drivers.

Thanks in advance for any help to fix this issue.
