Once every few hours go by, for some reason **Volume Mixer** for **FxSound Speakers** gets reset to device volume ( **13** )…
I have to set System Sounds back to “ **1** ” every few hours. Can this bug be fixed, so volumes are not being reset?
I am using Windows 10.

And which version of FxSound are you using?
Also, there’s a basic troubleshooting list bannered to the top of the forum:

This is the most recent update (11/01/2024) of my “first-aid-kit” list, with numbered bullet points, for easy reference. A few days ago, FxSound went [open-source on GitHub](https://github.com/fxsound2/fxsound-app) (you can find [@james’ full post here](https://forum.fxsound.com/t/fxsound-is-now-open-source/2554)); going forward, when posting a bug report or feature request on the forum, it would be helpful to report the bug or request the feature through the [GitHub Issue…](https://github.com/fxsound2/fxsound-app/issues)

Have you researched this issue online yet, and, if so, what did you find?
Below are some links which could hopefully be helpful; the first one is a small free tool called EarTrumpet which allows for very precise, device-specific volume control:

> Volume control for Windows
And this article from Microsoft Support contains suggestions 4, 6 and 17 from my list, among others:

Do let me know if any of this actually helps.

The latest one. 1.1.20.0
It only resets volume since I installed FxSound, and it resets only on FxSound Speakers device not on system sound device (Speakers).
I will try eartrumpet.

Been using eartrumpet and this issue doesn’t occur anymore. Volume levels are stable and not being randomly reset.
