Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Audible but low ordinary media; no hearing-safety limit bypass.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Playback is too quiet or uneven.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
