Windows 11 audio glitch unexpectedly cranks system volume to 100%

Users of Windows 11 24H2 are experiencing an audio issue where sound levels can unexpectedly increase to 100 percent, particularly affecting gamers with gaming hardware. Microsoft has identified the problem occurring under specific conditions: when a PC is updated to Windows 11 24H2, uses the Creative Sound BlasterX G6 external USB DAC, is manually put into sleep mode and then woken, when the DAC is connected and immediately disconnected, or when the volume on the DAC is adjusted and then quickly detached. The issue is linked to a timing problem within the AudioEndpointBuilder service, and Microsoft is working on a resolution.

Microsoft confirms Windows 11 24H2 trashes game audio, breaks date & time setting

Microsoft's Windows 11 24H2 update is causing issues with date and time settings, particularly affecting the time zone feature and automatic time synchronization after sleep mode. Users without administrative privileges cannot adjust their time zone settings, although the functionality itself is not disrupted. A workaround involves using the Control Panel for adjustments. Microsoft is investigating these issues and plans to release a fix, potentially by late January 2025. Additionally, there is a bug causing USB audio devices, especially USB digital audio converters, to spike sound levels to 100%. This issue occurs under specific conditions, and Microsoft is also working on a resolution for this problem. Despite these issues, the Windows 11 2024 Update is still available, with the upgrade block recently lifted for more PCs.

Microsoft confirms a Windows 11 bug that blasts your ears at 100% volume if you do these things

Microsoft has acknowledged a bug affecting Windows 11 users that causes the system volume to unexpectedly spike to 100%, particularly for those using specific external USB digital audio converter (DAC) systems like the Creative Sound BlasterX G6. The issue occurs under certain conditions, including using the Creative Sound BlasterX G6 USB DAC, operating a gaming system running Windows 11 version 24H2, manually putting the gaming system to sleep and waking it up, connecting and quickly disconnecting the external sound system, and adjusting the volume of the external sound system before detaching it. Microsoft is aware of the issue but currently does not have an immediate solution, attributing the problem to a timing conflict involving the AudioEndpointBuilder service. Users are advised to monitor Windows Update for future fixes.
