volume bar goes down.... by flipmodea on 01-06-2007 at 07:33 PM

Hi everybody,
I have a problem when I try to talk to someone else on Msn,
the volume bar keeps going down and I cannot get it to stay on a high volume, it's really frustrating,
I think the reason might be because I have an M Audio Delta sound card so I don't actuallyl plug in my headfone and microphone inputs on the computer, so If anyone can let me know how I could cure the problem that would be really great so I can chat to some peops accross the boarder and enjoy the true entertaining msn live...

thanks,


Mike, A

The volume bar is sound sensitive, ie. You make a loud sound, like scream or shout, it automatically adjusts itself. In future versions of WLM, I'm hoping this is removed. :undecided:

yeah i know what you mean with the sensitive feature but when I have to keep pressing on my mouse on the max value of the volume bar in order for it to stay, it just keeps on going back to zero every time, weird...

Where do you plug them in then? this could be your problem (somehow :dodgy:).

EDIT: And my quote of you has been spell-checked :)

It's software automatically detecting the sound from the mic and turning the volume down, not the jack.
