I am facing this trouble with mpv that randomly the maximum volume from MPV becomes much lower than normal. It stays like that for random duration and then randomly it becomes fine for unknown duration. I face this problem daily.

$ mpv --version
mpv v0.38.0 Copyright © 2000-2024 mpv/MPlayer/mplayer2 projects
libplacebo version: v6.338.2
FFmpeg version: n7.0
FFmpeg library versions:
   libavutil       59.8.100
   libavcodec      61.3.100
   libavformat     61.1.100
   libswscale      8.1.100
   libavfilter     10.1.100
   libswresample   5.1.100

I was facing this trouble with mpv 0.37 and was hoping that the issue might go away with the upgrade to 0.38 but it is still there.

Are you by any chance using PulseAudio?
