Today is the second time when PipeWire (or kernel? idk) on Fedora 44 Beta suddenly decided to blast my headphones at 10x their maximum volume. It is systemwide and I don't see it indicated anywhere—all sounds just become 10x stronger, very clipped, even when adjusting volume. The only fix I found so far is to replug the headset..

It must be some regression because it never happened on F43

@YaLTeR lol. I'm afraid about my 10% volume setting which I've set up in pavucontrol with pulseaudio back then and when switching to pw it somehow saved that, but I don't know where and why and if it's also for non-pulseaudio things. Luckily I didn't get sound blasted like you hehe

@lixou it will not help you. When this happens even minimum volume is extremely loud
