Volume is automatically increasing or decreasing when my earbuds are connected!!!

When I plug in my earbuds, the volume automatically increases to full volume or decreases until mute. While this happens, I could not increase or decrease the volume either by the volume option on the toolbar, the volume on the keyboard, or the pop-up volume on the screen. I have to wait at least a minute or two to be able to change the volume, but it reoccurs about 3 minutes later. The sound-ware of the device does not automatically change volume when there are no sound devices connected to the laptop. From responses to a similar question on other websites, I tried upgrading my laptop speakers to the latest version, but to no avail - the speakers were already up to date. Please provide assistance. Thanks.

Hi Natalie,

Welcome and thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

We appreciate your interest in Windows 10. 

 

This issue might be because of settings related to Microphone\Headset. 

The issue cab be resolved by making Microphone\Headset as the default device and updating the sound card drivers.

Let's ensure that the microphone that you are using is not disabled and is set as default in the computer. Follow these steps to check this:

a. Right click on the volume icon and select “Recording devices”.

b. Now, right click on an empty space and select, “Show disconnected devices” and “Show disabled devices”.

c. Select “Microphone” and click on “Properties” and make sure that the microphone is enabled.

d. You may also check if the microphone that you are using is set as default.

You can also refer to the following link, which has troubleshooting related to “No Sound”.

No sound in Windows (Steps referred in the following link are applicable to Windows 10 as well).

Hope this is helpful.
