Entire windows 11 audio is messed up

[Sterben123321]

I was on Spotify when i noticed a update so i updated my Spotify and then everything went downhill first the audio from spotify wouldnt play at all but the songs would play and when the song was playing (I cant hear the actual song) it would make other things on my desktop way louder like a discord call, a youtube video. And I still cant hear the spotify song but when i do itll be a second and itll literally ruin my audio for my pc like itll start chopping up sounds from youtube, discord and making them very weird this all happened because I updated and it tweaks out when ever i open spotify please help me.

im on windows 11
The video shows how the volume will randomly boost and audio cracking please help

I have the same exact problem with the spotify desktop app, when I open a game and a song is playing at the same time, the sound from the music cuts and every thing else (sound of the game) is so loud it almost broke my headset

Alright I’ll try that website then, because for me none of the solutions here worked for me and I also don’t get why my topic was moved as a reply into your topic here. Is this normal behaviour for Spotify Community?

This worked for me, ever since the newest update mine has had the same issue. I hope it gets resolved soon.

I have the same issue. Paying customer since forever.

Disabling "Enable audio enhancements" is not a fix. I should not have to be poking around in the windows audio options because of something you did.

Please test**bleep** before you release to your customers. Spotify is supposed to be good at playing music, it seems you are more interested in adding bloat these days than having basic functionality in place. Embarassing.

I'm having the same issue. When playing games, if I try to play music on Spotify, the game sound becomes LOUD and the music won't play.

App has been working fine for years on my desktop. now, upon every restart of the app it will not play music despite the progress bar moving and make other applications unbearably loud until the progress bar is paused or Spotify is closed, I've tried resetting app data, re-downloading, restarting my computer and disabling Hardware Acceleration for Spotify.
