Hello, the issue I'm facing is that Windows keeps lowering my microphone volume even though I'm speaking at a normal level. I'm not shouting or speaking loudly—sometimes I'm just whispering—and yet Windows still reduces my volume automatically. Because of this, I can’t use my microphone, which I paid hundreds of dollars for, at its full potential. I’ve tried every suggested solution from YouTube, Reddit, and other forums, but nothing has worked. I believe this is caused by a faulty piece of code, and it urgently needs to be fixed. This problem has existed for years—it was present in Windows 10 and unfortunately still persists in Windows 11. We shouldn't have to endure this frustrating issue any longer.

Thank you, this is the first time I've heard of this solution — I'm trying it now. After testing it for a while, maybe it will really work. The browser I’m using is Brave, and it's also Chromium-based.

I’m also on brave and had to wade through this same issue. Happy to help! Enjoy the mic and awesome setup!
