My video editing skills aren’t a showcase, but you can see here there are multiple steps in the volume control before it gets to my normal listening level. You can just about hear it, but that is a comfortable listening volume when worn.
I also tried it in my MacBook and the comfortable listening volume through Roon is 23/100, with system volume at about 30%.
On my work Dell Laptop, it’s noticeably louder, and I can see where people experience volume issues, albeit still perfectly controllable and way above 1-2% volume.
So, I don’t know what the issue is.
Very odd.
Are all of your results using Roon? How do you have the DFC configured (exclusive, volume control, etc.)? Obviously you can use DSP volume control to lower the volume (i.e. double volume control) but you are throwing away bits to do so and defeating the bit-perfect volume feature of the DFC.
