Backstory - some of us have had an issue for almost a year where the audio volume scaling is messed up. That is, setting the volume at 3 is loud/too loud to hold a conversation, and 2 is too quiet. It happened to me shortly after a software update last summer.
I decided to mess around with it today to see if I could solve it. I can tell you what I did. I can’t exactly pinpoint what solved it, but I have a suspicion. Let’s see if someone else has similar luck. I had Spotify on playing music. Soon after I got the R1S, I created a custom EQ setting. I have tweaked it several times, but never changed to a factory preset. Today, before going into work, I cycled through all the presets (rock, jazz, classical, etc). the volume scaling DID NOT change while or after doing this. i toggled Speed Control Volume a couple of times, no change, so I gave up.
When I left work today, the volume was set at 3 and it was QUIET. I had to turn it up to 7-8 for normal volume level (that’s what I recall when I first got the vehicle) and 2-3 is definitely much quieter than before. I then set up a custom EQ which did not affect the overall volume. 7-8 is still a good volume - not too quiet, not too loud. I’m a vey happy camper now!
My guess is that somehow the volume scaling got glitched on a software update as part of the custom EQ I had set up, and the custom EQ retained it. I am 100% certain that I did not change to a preset until today. So my best guess is that toggling through presets plus it sleeping while I was at work is what fixed it.
if you have this volume issue, give this a try and post your results!
