RANT: G'd I hate Microsoft and their shitty poorly tested releases.

But still, to EarTrumpet's credit, it is easier to have this in my taskbar instead of keeping the Windows Sound properties screen open all the time. Slider which is broken because the underlying function in Windows is broken.

But it has the exactly same functionality - it has a master volume * I installed EarTrumpet and EarTrumpet is a much easier to use, taskbar equivalent of this same settings panel - you can more conveniently reach volume sliders for each app. This is a somewhat usable workaround but you have to To get to the app volume settings, you need to visit 'App volume and device preferences' in Settings -> Sound. * Application level volume does seem to work still. Any value in the slider >0 is treated as 100 volume. Master volume basically now has only 2 settings, 0 or 100. * The issue is the complete failure of the master volume toggle. * This happens for just about EVERY bluetooth speaker, no point in identifying each one, it's endemic to all speakers When is someone from Microsoft going to fix this?! FYI the suggestion to run the troubleshooter is foolish useless braindead and tonedeaf. Or if anyone figures out how to fix it, please let us know too. If someone from Microsoft reads this, please give us instructions on how to fix this problem. This has to be a Windows update issue because it used to work perfectly before. I tried updating all sound drivers, all Bluetooth related drivers, BIOS, changing volume control settings, removing any non-critical Windows/ Flash Player/ etc This is really annoying because I need the Bluetooth speakers to be controlled from my keyboard. The laptop speaker works normally only the Bluetooth speaker has issues. With pinging noises and volume would go out of control. Every time I attempt to increase or decrease volume, the volume bar would flash intermittently HP Envy x360 with Vizio SB 5.1 3651 Bluetooth speaker.Īfter recent Windows update, volume control button on laptop keyboard and mouse-clicking volume control bar of Windows cannot be used to adjust Bluetooth speaker anymore.
