Microphone volume keeps lowering down

Interesting. Does it also reset the input volume if you increase it to a value at or below 100%? I’m wondering whether those “boosted” volumes above 100% aren’t supported by your hardware maybe.

it lowers even at 92%
but it goes down ~1-2%

Understood, I assume the mic itself works fine on another computer/OS? 🤔

[ivory void]

yes,
(I dual boot mint)

Dumb question, but I noticed this toward the end of your last video 😅 You have Discord running; do you see the same behavior when you fully quit Discord (not just close it, but actually quit)? I’m wondering if Discord’s Automatic Gain Control setting might be messing this up.

I see, hey at least we're getting closer 😄

Does this sound about right?

At this point I'm not even sure anymore if this is a bug or a feature 🤔

There also seem to be a lot of discussions surrounding this topic on the Vesktop side of things
https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop/pull/832

The maintainers seem to close any PRs related to this though 🤔 In any case, glad we found the culprit

Did it work? Seems they fixed it in v1.5.7 - at least on paper they did
